SOLUTION: 12/√(5x+6)=√(2x+5) Ok I know you square each side to come up with 144/5x+6=2x+5 Then you multiply 5x+6 to each side. 144=(5x+6)(2x+5) 144=10x^2+25x+12x+30

: 12/√(5x+6)=√(2x+5)
Ok I know you square each side to come up with 144/5x+6=2x+5
Then you multiply 5x+6 to each side.
144=(5x+6)(2x+5)
144=10x^2+25x+12x+30
move 144 to the other side of the equal which makes

0=10x^2+37x-114
0=(2x )(5x )
I can not figure out what goes along with 2x and 5x to make it equal.
Thanks
