is this considered a complex equation or number and how would i solved it algebraically?
:
It's not a complex equation, or a complex fraction
:
=
:
The fractions have the same denominator, combine on the left, numbers on the right
+ = 10 - 5
= 5
:
Multiply both sides by (x-6) to get rid of the denominator
2x - 2 = 5(x-6)
:
2x - 2 = 5x - 30
:
-2 + 30 = 5x - 2x
:
28 = 3x
x = ; 9
:
:
Check solution using x = 9.33 on a calc
=
=
5 - .6 = 10 - 5.6; confirms our solution
