You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The original question I think was
(i) %286%2F2%29%5Ex+-+49%2Fx+=+17
If don't include the (_) then there is no solution.
if we do include the (_) then we get an answer.
we can express (i) as
(ii) 3%5Ex+-+49%2Fx+=+17
through some calculator manipulations, we get
x ~ -2.88946
If we apply this to the left hand side, we get
17.0000053 ~ 17.
