Question

if x/2= 3/x+1- 1/2 then x= ?

Answer 1

x=-2
x=3

Answer 2

@MMH123 , do you get how he did it?

Answer 3

What was your answer?

Answer 4

no

Answer 5

\[\frac x2= \frac{3}{x+1}- \frac12\]is it that?

Answer 6

yes

Answer 7

Okay,
let's solve the right side first,
\[\frac x2 = \frac{3 -1(x+1)}{2(x+1)}\]\[\frac x2 = \frac{3 - x - 1}{2x+2}\]

Answer 8

\[\frac x2 = \frac{2 - x}{2x + 2}\]Cross multiply..
\[x(2x+2) = 2(2-x)\]Can you solve now?

Answer 9

yeah thanks

Answer 10

Welcome.

Answer 11

@saifoo.khan you made a slight error up there - the "3 -" should be "6 -"...

Answer 12

OH! :/

Answer 15

what's the mistake?

Answer 16

let me do it again..

Answer 17

Do you mind reposting it?

Answer 18

nvm.. im solving here.

Answer 19

\[\frac x2= \frac {3}{x+1}- \frac12\]
Take the LCM 2(x+1)
\[\frac x2 = \frac{3(2) - 1(x+1)}{2(x+1)}\]can u solve from here?

Answer 20

yeah

Answer 21

Cool.

Answer 22

i cant solve it from there

Answer 23

\[\frac x2 = \frac{6 - x - 1}{2x+2}\]Now?

Answer 24

yeah thanks
