Find the solutions to the equation: x− 5/x = 4
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru by x to get:
\n" ); document.write( "x^2-5 = 4x
\n" ); document.write( "Rearrange
\n" ); document.write( "x^2-4x-5=0
\n" ); document.write( "Factor
\n" ); document.write( "(x-5)(x+1)=0
\n" ); document.write( "x=5 or x=-1
