How did you obtain the answer then?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got it from My algebra but it doesn't show steps...

Very good then. So first find the common denominator on the left side. What is the common factor of 2 and 5?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

10

Ok, so to go from 5 to 10, you have to multiply by 2. So multiply (x-6) by 2. To go from 2 to 10 you have to multiply by 5, so multiply (x+2) by 5: |dw:1348436552118:dw|
