help..? Please? step by step?

Answer 1

hello imran

Answer 2

Hi! (:

Answer 3

\[\frac{x-2}{3}=\frac{2x+8}{6x} \iff 6x(x-2)=3(2x+8)\] is a start

Answer 4

multiply out, get a quadratic equation so solve namely
\[6x^2-12x=6x+24\]
\[6x^2-18x-24=0\]
\[x^2-3x-4=0\] and i bet you are good from there because this factors easily

Answer 5

Thank you very much. I kind of suck at math and have a lot of math homework to do.

Answer 6

so is it x=4 and x= -1 ?
