Question

Solve the quantity 2 x minus 5 divided by the quantity x minus 2, minus 2 equals 3 divided by the quantity x plus 2

Answer 1

2x-5 3
----- -2 = ----
x-2 x+2
2x-5-2x+4 3
---------- = ---
x-2 x+2

-1 3
----- = ------
x-2 x+2
now do cross multiplication
-1(x+2) = 3(x-2)
-x-2 = 3x-6
3x+x =6 +2
4x=8
x=8/4
x=2
