    Negative energy is hard to visualize.. maybe impossible :O

    Undergrad How do I simplify 3(x-1)/(x+1)(x-2) + 2(x-1)/(x-2)(x-4)?

    Err you know what, Ill go work on this somewhere else. Thanks for your guys time. I guess. -Topic Closed (essentially)

    Undergrad How do I simplify 3(x-1)/(x+1)(x-2) + 2(x-1)/(x-2)(x-4)?

    Touche, this does seem to fit those guidelines.

    Undergrad How do I simplify 3(x-1)/(x+1)(x-2) + 2(x-1)/(x-2)(x-4)?

    And by the way, my phrasing "How would I go about simplifying this" doesn't ask for POOF HERE'S THE ANSWER. It shows that I don't know where to even GET STARTED working the problem. Now that I have shown that this is just part of my problem and that I will show my work for the full problem once...

    Undergrad How do I simplify 3(x-1)/(x+1)(x-2) + 2(x-1)/(x-2)(x-4)?

    If you tell me how to simplify that, I can come up with an answer for all the asymptotes for that and THEN you could check my work

    Undergrad How do I simplify 3(x-1)/(x+1)(x-2) + 2(x-1)/(x-2)(x-4)?

    Im working with Asymptotes. I am currently in 8th grade algebra so I have no idea how to simplify that. Like ZIP. I know what to do once I have figured that out though, I would need to find if that simplified function has a vertical, horizontal, or oblique asymptote.

    Undergrad How do I simplify 3(x-1)/(x+1)(x-2) + 2(x-1)/(x-2)(x-4)?

    How would I go about simplifying this: 3(x-1) / (x+1)(x-2) + 2(x-1) / (x-2)(x-4) Thanks!

    Undergrad Understanding a passage from Newton's Principia about weights and wheels

    Can someone please help me understand what this means?: "And therefore if weight 'p' is to weight 'A' in a ratio compounded of the reciprocal ratio of the least distances of the chords PN, AM, from the center of the wheel, and of the direct ratio of pH to pN, the weights will have the same...

    Graduate Calculating black hole temperature for the sun's mass

    Ok so first I know that this equation was presented by Stephen Hawking to describe to Temperature of a black hole: T = hc2 / 16∏2GMk so I did the calculations and got that the temperature of a black hole with the mass of our sun would be ≈ .57° Is this right? Is this the right equation...

    High School What is the fourth term of an arithmetic sequence with specific given terms?

    No I believe you are wrong, it IS an arithmetic sequence. Let me explain... P does equal 12, and the difference between them is 18, so: an = a1 + (n-1) * d Plugging in numbers: an = 12 + (4-1) * 18 so the fourth number is 66 Thanks for your help anyways :)
