Question

what is the value of 'a' in the equation a+1/a-1=6/5​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Let's multiply the first term by 22 to achieve a common denominator. Now, we have

2(x−2)6+16=56

We can multiply every term by 6 to get

2(x−2)+1=5

Suddenly this equation becomes much more easier to solve. We can distribute the 2 to both terms in parenthesis to get

2x−4+1=5

Which simplifies to

2x−3=5

Adding 3 to both sides, we get

2x=8

Lastly, we can divide both sides by 2 to get

a = 11
