Find the values of the variable y, for which:
the difference between the fractions y+12/y-4 and y/y+4 is equal to their product

  y = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Ordinarily, in math, when we say "the difference between ..." we mean the second listed item is subtracted from the first. (In English, we often mean "the positive difference between ..." so the order doesn't matter.)

We'll assume we are only interested in the case where the difference is in the order listed.

There is one solution.

Comment on the solution

If you were to "clear fractions" by multiplying the equation by (y^2-16), you would also obtain the extraneous solution y=-4. That is why we did not solve it that way.

the options are kind of confusing. i can tell you what i see going on here when i look at the graph.

the class and exam medians are closely related, and it looks like the low outlier on the exam did pull the median lower. [tex][/tex]
