$\"5%2F%281-x%29+=+4%2Fx+%2B+1%2F2x\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply both sides by $\"2x%2A%281+-+x%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"10x+=+8%2A%281+-+x%29+%2B+1+-+x\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"10x+=+8+-+8x+%2B+1+-+x\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"19x+=+9\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x+=+9%2F19\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Unless I goofed or copied problem wrong \n" ); document.write( "
