Question

Algebra - what term can you add to make it equivalent

Answer 1

-1/3x

Explanation:

For all of you suffering. (Took the test)

Answer 2

-
`(1)/(3)` x

To make the 2 expressions equivalent we require the coefficients of x to be equal.

`(1)/(2)` =
`(3)/(6)`

subtracting
`(2)/(6)` from
`(5)/(6)` =
`(3)/(6)`

thus
`(5)/(6)` x -
`(2)/(6)` x - 4

makes the 2 expressions equivalent
