Find the solution set 99/2(x-1) + 63/2(x+1) - 80/x=0

OpenStudy (nirmalnema):

1st transfer the -ve term term to RHS then what u will get multiply the whole eq..by 2 to remove it from denominator of LHS

OpenStudy (nirmalnema):

- 80/x transfer this

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay...

OpenStudy (nirmalnema):

what u will get.. ??

OpenStudy (nirmalnema):

also open all the brackets and simplify it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait, arent we supposed to assign a certain value like x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (nirmalnema):

u will get 162x -36=180/x

OpenStudy (nirmalnema):

ohh...sorry the (x+1) and (x-1) term is in the denominator...i thought they are in numenator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it's okay :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you still help me solve it? :)

OpenStudy (nirmalnema):

yup i will try

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you :) i need to fin the solution set

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*find

OpenStudy (nirmalnema):

1 min plz..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

take your time :)

OpenStudy (nirmalnema):

yup u know how to solve quadratic eq..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a little. I suck at math T_T

OpenStudy (nirmalnema):

1st transfer the -ve term to RHS

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait, what is -ve and RHS?

OpenStudy (nirmalnema):

negative means the term with minus sign and transfer it towards the zero side...then it will become +ve

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok :)

OpenStudy (nirmalnema):

then take LCM on LHS

OpenStudy (anonymous):

LHS?

OpenStudy (nirmalnema):

side of the left hand side of 0
