Cross multiply first.

Answer 5

\[ x^2 + 5x + 6 = x^2 + 2x + 6\]

Answer 6

i am having a hard time finding the solution

Answer 7

\[ x^2 + 5x + 6 = x^2 + 2x + 6\]

Answer 8

(x+3)(x+2)=(x+1)(x+6)
x^2+ 5x+6 = x^2 + 7x + 6

Answer 9

Close,

\(x^2 + 5x + 6 = x^2 + 7x + 6\)
\(x^2-x^2+6-6=7x-5x\)

Answer 10

then i got\[x^2= x^2 + 2x\]

Answer 11

So from that we have,

\(0=2x\)

Answer 12

yes, sorry mistyped did get 7x
