What are the solutions for:
What are the solutions for x in the proportion \[\frac{ 2x + 3 }{ x } = \frac{ 2x }{ 2 }\]
2 x + 3/x = x
Ok sorry I was AFK
@sammaraq60 I am here to understand how to get to the answer not to get an answer.
So please continue but help me understand how to do this.
Cross multiply first, do you know how to do that? \
write the left hand side as a single fraction
Yes but I think I am doing something wrong because my answer is wrong.
bring x + 3/x together using the common denominator
Well cross multiply and show me what you get
it should look like this x^2 +3/x =0
But don't I need to first simplify what I ca to do this?
How did you take away the 2 from 2x + 3 samm?
before you crossmultiply , simplify 2x/2= x
Ok gotcha so I would just mutiply the denominator and the denominator by x?
