Question

1/x+1/(x+2)=1/3

Answer 1

solving for x?

Answer 2

finding the discriminant

Answer 3

sorry , I'm supposed to solve using a quadratic equation/method

Answer 4

multiply both sides of the equation by x (*all terms*, both sides)
then multiply both sides by (x+2)

(you could do those two steps in one step if you know how)
finally, multiply both sides (and all terms) by 3

these steps will get rid of all the fractions.

can you do that ?
