OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Loser66

OpenStudy (loser66):

!= is not equal. because the whole thing is in denominator, you have to put them in those condition before "cross" them , right? in case after solving, you get exactly x =0, you have to reject that solution.

OpenStudy (loser66):

think of this, what if x =0? or x = 3/2? the equation is undefined, right?
