Solve x+3+8/x^4

$$x + 3 + \frac { 8 } { x ^ { 4 } }$$

Evaluate

$$x+3+\frac{8}{x^{4}}$$

Short Solution Steps

To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Multiply x+3 times \frac{x^{4}}{x^{4}}.

$$\frac{\left(x+3\right)x^{4}}{x^{4}}+\frac{8}{x^{4}}$$

Since \frac{\left(x+3\right)x^{4}}{x^{4}} and \frac{8}{x^{4}} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{\left(x+3\right)x^{4}+8}{x^{4}}$$

Do the multiplications in \left(x+3\right)x^{4}+8.

$$\frac{x^{5}+3x^{4}+8}{x^{4}}$$

Factor

$$\frac{x^{5}+3x^{4}+8}{x^{4}}$$
