The equation 24x2+25x−47
ax−2
=−8x−3−53
ax−2
is true for all values of x≠2/a
where a is a constant.

What is the value of a?

A) -16
B) -3
C) 3
D) 16

Its B

Step-by-step explanation:

24x2+25x−47=(−8x−3)(ax−2)−53

then multiply (−8x−3) and (ax−2) using FOIL.

24x2+25x−47=−8ax2−3ax+16x+6−53

Then, reduce the right side of the equation

24x2+25x−47=−8ax2−3ax+16x−47

Since the coefficients of the x2-term have to be equal on both sides of the equation, −8a=24, or a=−3.

The final answer is B.
