Hey /co/, PPG 2016 is asking you to solve for X.
>>93892663
I'm not doing shit when it's not equal to anything.
>>93892663
That's impossible without it being an actual equation
>>93892737

>>93892663
4x^2+32x+64/x^2+8x+16
Ok now what
>>93892754
Yes the whole thing reduces to 4 but to "solve for X" you need the other half of the equation. As is X could be literally anything
>>93892780
add twenty
>>93892780
If you're supposed to divide after that then you get
4x^2+4x+4
But like some said, it's not an actual equation, therefore it can't be solved
>>93892663
Now here's where I put myself out there like a fool, but don't the polynomials cancel out?
>>93892796
eat shit faggot

The answer is 4.
Not x=4, mind you.
(X+4)^2 = (X^2+8X+16), so if x =0, then it's 4(16)/(4)^2 = 4(16)/16 = 4.

Not really that hard in this day and age.

Nigga did you finish Algebra 101?
>>93892864
How is that solving for X? We still don't know what X is.
>>93892663
4x2+32x+64/x2+8x+16
4x2+4x+4
4(x2+x+1)
Now we just need an equal
>>93892663
>>93892845
That doesn't solve for X though. Solving for X is impossible since this isn't an equation.
X could be any numberexcept -4.
>>93892663
That simplifies to 4 but there's no equals sign
No matter what value of x you put in the answer is 4

Where's the download for this?
I desire it for completely petty reasons.
>>93892663
I have dyscalculia so I can't solve this
>>93892663
c = (x^2 + 8x + 16) = (x+4)(x+4) = (x+4)^2
so the equation is 4c/c which is 4 as long as c != 0 that is for all x where x != -4
>>93892663
What was the result?
>>93894228
It doesn't matter. The equation can only equal 4 or be undefined.
>>93894228
Buttercup throws a 4 at it. There was also a limit she solves.
>>93892663
x = 4
>>93892663
This is not equation

>>93895128
Who?
>>93892796
Even if it were an actual equation, since you reduced the x out of the entire thing, x can STILL be anything.
>>93894428
No it fucking doesn't.
>>93892982
>impossible to be -4
The opposite would be "not possible to not be 4"
Answer its 4.
>Doing math ever
You're all a bunch of nerdy faggots. Now excuse me while I go watch cartoons.
>>93892845
>The answer is 4
except when x =-4.
X=any real number except 4, assuming the fraction equals 4. If the fraction equals anything else, the answer is no real number.
= 4(x^2 + 8x + 16) / (x+ 4)^2
= (4(x+4)^2 / (x+4)^2
= 4

Meant -4, not 4.

You can solve for x, but do you know why kids love the taste of Cinnamon Toast Crunch?
