Algebra.Com's Answer #11324 by venugopalramana(3286) You can put this solution on YOUR website! ((x-2)/(x-1))+((x-3)/(2x-5))=1 \n" ); document.write( "LCM IS (X-1)(2X-5)..SO MULTIPLY THROUGHOUT WITH THE LCM ..WE GET.. \n" ); document.write( "(x-2)(2x-5)+(x-3)(x-1)=(x-1)(2x-5) \n" ); document.write( "2x^2-5x-4x+10+x^2-x-3x+3=2x^2-5x-2x+5 \n" ); document.write( "2x^2-5x-4x+10+x^2-x-3x+3-2x^2+5x+2x-5=0 \n" ); document.write( "x^2-6x+8=0 \n" ); document.write( "x^2-4x-2x+8=0 \n" ); document.write( "x(x-4)-2(x-4)=0 \n" ); document.write( "(x-2)(x-4)=0 \n" ); document.write( "x-2=0....or....x-4=0 \n" ); document.write( "x=2....or.....4 \n" ); document.write( "you can check back by substitution \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
