Thanks
Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Solve the equation:
x/(2x+2) = -2x/(4x+4) + (2x-3)/(x-1)
x/(2x+2) = -2x/(4x+4) + (2x-3)/(x-1)
x/[2(x+1)] = -x/[2(x+1)] + (2x-3)/(x-1)
Multiply thru by 2(x+1)(x-1) to get:
x(x-1) = -x(x-1) + 2(x+1)(2x-3)
2x(x-1) = 2(2x^2-x-3)
2x^2-2x = 4x^2-2x-6
2x^2-6 = 0
2(x^2-3) = 0
x = sqrt3 or x= -sqrt(3)
