is this \[3/{(5x)}\] or \[(3/5) x\]? Assuming its the second one, you can multiply both sides by 5 and get \[2+3x=5x + 5/2\] \[2x = -1/2\] \[x = -1/4\]
no, its the first one. I'm sorry
In that case you can still multiply both sides by 5, but this time youll get the following result: \[2 + 3/x = 5x + 5/2\] \[-1/2 = 5x - 3/x\] \[-1/2 = 5x^2/x - 3/x\] \[-1/2 = (5x^2 - 3)/x\] \[-(1/2)x = 5x^2 - 3\] Do note that from the very first step we have to say that x can never be 0, because of the divsion by x. So this yields \[5x^2 +(1/2) x - 3 = 0\] And now you can just use the formula. Can you handle it from here?
