Question

I am trying to evaluate 3/x+2=2/x-6 do I set these to 0 and solve ?

Answer 1

you can but it easier to combine like terms on either side of the equal sign

Answer 2

first you can cross-multiply

Answer 3

so 2(x+2) = 3(x - 6)
then its easy

Answer 4

expand the brackets and bring like terms either side of the =

Answer 5

I crossed multiply and did not get what I thought it came out like 2=3 and I cannot find it in my book! but as I was looking I was asked to solve for F=KMn over R^2 what is that suppose to find? My previous problem was 3 over x+2= 2 over x-6
