Question

sovle the following equation for x
x-2 /x+3 = x-2/x+6

Answer 1

All you have to do for this is cross multiply, expand, and solve.

So you have:

1) (x+6)*(x-2) = (x-2)*(x+3)

2) \[x ^{2}+4x-12 = x ^{2}+x-6\]

3) 3x-6 = 0

and so x = 2

Answer 2

(x-2)(x+3)=(x-2)(x+6)
=>x^2+x-6=x^2+4x-12
=>3x=6
=>x=2
