a+4/2=a+4/a=
a^+4a+ a+4a
a^=-4-4
a^=8
Check this for me
what are we doing?
is there an equation , and is it
(a+4)/2 = (a+4)/a ?
solve equation
a+4/2=a+4/a
The a+4 is over2=a+4over a solve for equation.
then
a^2 +4a = 2a + 8
a^2 + 2a - 8 = 0
(a+4)(a-2) = 0
a = -4 or x = 2
To check the solution, we need to substitute the value of 'a' we found back into the original equation and see if it holds true.
The original equation is:
a + 4/2 = a + 4/a
We found that a = 8, so let's substitute a = 8 in the equation:
8 + 4/2 = 8 + 4/8
Firstly, let's simplify the expression on the left side of the equation:
8 + 4/2 = 8 + 2
Now, simplify the expression on the right side of the equation:
8 + 4/8 = 8 + 0.5
So, the equation becomes:
8 + 2 = 8 + 0.5
Simplifying the equation, we get:
10 = 8.5
Since 10 is not equal to 8.5, the solution a = 8 does not satisfy the original equation. Therefore, a = 8 is not a valid solution.
