Question 696651: Solve for all values of x: (9/x)+(9/x-2)=12
Solve for x: 125^-2x=25^x+1
Please help me. For the first one I made the bttom equal and started corss multiplying it but then from there got confused cauz I couldn't simplify and my numbers were getting wierd. For the second one I don't even know how to do it. We never learned it in class. Thanks in advance!

** Note that , and

9(x - 2) + 9(x) = 12(x)(x - 2) ----- Multiplying by LCD, x(x - 2)







---- Factoring out the GCF, 6 to simplify trinomial



(2x - 1)(x - 3) = 0

2x - 1 = 0 ---- 2x = 1 -----

x - 3 = 0 ----

Many problems similar to no. 2 have been done previously for you (I think). You should be able to follow the same concept and figure this one out.

You can do the check!!
