Question

Help! 1/x-4 = 6/x+6

Answer 1

You need the value of x?

Answer 2

Yes

Answer 3

\[1/ (x-4) = 6/(x+6) \]

Answer 4

If they are equal then if you subtract one from the other you would get 0. Thus rewrite the equation as 1/x - 4 - 6/x+6 = 0. Now find the least common denominator and solve.

Answer 5

times x+6 to both sides and times x-4 by both sides.

You will end up with:

\[(x+ 6) = 6(x-4)\]

Answer 6

I think you can take it on from here.
