It normally takes 2 hours to fill a swimming pool. The pool has developed a slow leak. If the pool were full, it would take 10 hours for all the water to leak out. If the pool is empty, how long will it take to fill it?
After adding \(\frac{3 x+1}{4}\) and \(\frac{x+2}{4},\) I simplified the sum by dividing the numerator and the denominator by 4 I use similar procedures to find each of the following sums: $$ \frac{3}{8}+\frac{1}{8} \text { and } \frac{x}{x^{2}-1}+\frac{1}{x^{2}-1} $$
denominators are opposites, or additive inverses. Add or subtract as indicated. Simplify the result, if possible. $$\frac{y}{y-4}-\frac{4}{4-y}$$
