document.write( "Question 844070: i am trying to solve the problem of x/(x^2-9) 1/(x 3)=4
\n" ); document.write( "i started by using an LCD of (x 3)(x-3) to multiply to each term on both sides of equation. I arrived at an answer of x (x-3)=4(x^2-9). then i simplfied more to arrive at -4x^2-2x-33=0. i'm stuck. not sure how to tackle problem further \n" ); document.write( "
