I aint never seen two pretty best friends. its always one of them that gotta be ugly. anyway, The equation
24x2+25x−47
ax−2
=−8x−3−
53
ax−2
is true for all values of xâ‰
2
a
, where a is a constant.
Answer. You should then multiply (−8x−3) and (ax−2) using FOIL. Since the coefficients of the x2-term have to be equal on both sides of the equation, −8a=24, or a=−3.
