Solution Steps

To solve the subtraction problem given in part (b), we need to isolate \( P(x) \) by subtracting \(\frac{3}{8}\) from 1. This will give us the value of \( P(x) \).

Solution Approach
  1. Subtract \(\frac{3}{8}\) from 1 to find \( P(x) \).
Step 1: Calculate \( P(x) \)

To find \( P(x) \), we start with the equation:

\[ 1 - P(x) = \frac{3}{8} \]

We can isolate \( P(x) \) by rearranging the equation:

\[ P(x) = 1 - \frac{3}{8} \]

Step 2: Perform the subtraction

Now, we perform the subtraction:

\[ P(x) = \frac{8}{8} - \frac{3}{8} = \frac{5}{8} \]

Final Answer

Thus, the value of \( P(x) \) is

\[ \boxed{P(x) = \frac{5}{8}} \]

We want to solve the equation 2/(x-3)+3/(x-5)=(x+1)/((x-3)(x-5)). a. What is the common denominator we will create during the solution process? (x-3)(x-5) b. What values of x do we know CANNOT be solutions to this equation? Write your answers as a comma-separated list. x= c. The first few steps in the solution process are shown below. Fill in any missing parts in the steps. 2/(x-3) + 3/(x-5) = (x+1)/((x-3)(x-5)) 2/(x-3) * +3/(x-5) * =(x+1)/((x-3)(x-5)) 2(x-5)/((x-3)(x-5))+= (x+1)/((x-3)(x-5)) times=x+1 d. Complete the solution process and enter the solution(s) below. Include only actual solutions in your list - discard any extraneous solutions, If there are multiple solutions, enter them as a comma-separated list, If there are no solutions to the equation, choose the "no solution" option. x=
