First, you need to eliminate the denominators by multiplying both sides (or each term to both sides) by the common denominator. After that, solve for the variable.
Example:
2x - (1/3)x - 5 = x - 5/6 (the common denominator of 3 and 6 is 6, so multiply each term to both sides by 6)
2x(6) - [(1/3)x](6) - 5(6) = x(6) - (5/6)(6)
12x - 2x - 30 = 6x - 5 (add 30 and subtract 6x to both sides)
12x - 2x - 6x + 30 - 30 = 6x - 6x + 30 - 5
4x = 25 (divide by 4 to both sides)
x = 25/4 or
x = 6 1/4
Fractions are not integers. They may or may not be rational numbers.
All integers are rational numbers. There are integers with an i behind them that are imaginary numbers. They are not real numbers but they are rational. The square root of 2 is irrational. It is real but irrational.
a ractional function
All integers are rational numbers.
All integers are rational. Not all rational numbers are integers.
It is a trivial difference. If you multiply every term in the equation with rational numbers by the common multiple of all the rational numbers then you will have an equation with integers.
a rational expression.
Rational numbers and Real Numbers. The multiplicative inverses of integers are not integers.
It is true that a rational function is a function whose equation contains a rational expression. This is used in various math classes.
True
It is a fixed number, in an equation, for example, that can be expressed as a ratio of two integers.
A Rational number is a fraction of two integers; a rational expression is a fraction that contains at least one variable
Integers are aproper subset of rational numbers.
