Solve x^4(1+2/x^4)

$$x ^ { 4 } ( 1 + \frac { 2 } { x ^ { 4 } } )$$

Evaluate

$$x^{4}+2$$

Solution Steps

To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Multiply 1 times \frac{x^{4}}{x^{4}}.

$$x^{4}\left(\frac{x^{4}}{x^{4}}+\frac{2}{x^{4}}\right)$$

Since \frac{x^{4}}{x^{4}} and \frac{2}{x^{4}} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$x^{4}\times \frac{x^{4}+2}{x^{4}}$$

Cancel out x^{4} and x^{4}.

$$x^{4}+2$$

Expand

$$x^{4}+2$$
