Question

Simplify the expression.9/4x + 4 + 2x

15x + 12
5x + 4
x + 4
11/3x + 4

Answer 1

that's wrong

Answer 2

The simplified expression is 11/3x + 4.

Answer 3

Apologies for the mistake. Let's simplify the expression again:

9/4x + 4 + 2x

We can combine the like terms by adding the coefficients of x:

9/4x + 2x

To add the coefficients of x, we need to have a common denominator. The common denominator for 4 and 1 is 4, so we need to multiply 2x by 4/4:

9/4x + (2x)(4/4)

This gives us:

9/4x + 8x/4

Combining the terms, we have:

(9/4x + 8x)/4

To simplify the expression further, we can find a common denominator by multiplying 9/4x by 1:

(9/4x)(1) + 8x/4

This gives us:

(9/4x + 8x)/4

To add the fractions, we need to have a common denominator, which is 4x:

(9 + 32x)/4x

Thus, the simplified expression is (9 + 32x)/4x.
