Question

show your work:
3/(x^2) + 2/x = 10/ (2x^2)

Answer 1

We have
\[\frac 3{x^2}+\frac 2 x=\frac{10}{2x^2}\]
Multiply whole equation by 2x^2
cause it's the LCM of x, x^2 and 2x^2
so we get
\[2x^2\times \frac 3{x^2}+2x^2\times \frac 2 x=2x^2\times \frac{10}{2x^2}\]
we get now
\[6+2x\times 2=10\]
or we get
\[6+4x=10\]
Can you solve for x now?

Answer 2

@Elysse2012 do you get this?

Answer 3

how did you get from multiplying both sides by 2x^2 to the equation 6+2x x 2 = 10?

Answer 4

oh wait... nvm. thank you!

Answer 5

got it?

Answer 6
