Question 943034: Solve this quadratic equation.
(6)/(2x-1)=(4)/(x+1)
This is what I got, after multiplying the equation by the LCM (2x-1).
6=(4)/(x+1)
I think the non-permissible values are 0 & -1.
Please help me fix/complete the equation. Thanks!

The LCD is equal to (2x-1)(x+1).
Multiply both sides by the LCD, the result is
6(x + 1) = 4(2x - 1)
6x + 6 = 8x - 4
-2x = -10
Therefore

, with 

4(2x - 1) = 6(x + 1) ------- Cross-multiplying

8x - 4 = 6x + 6

8x - 6x = 6 + 4

2x = 10

, or       

You can do the check!!
