Question 771103: Solve the following equation: (7.5)/(x) - (8)/(x-7.5) +1 = 0.
I tried multiplying all the numbers by the common denominator and then solving for x, but I must have done the algebra incorrectly because my answer was incorrect. I'm not sure what exactly my mistake was, so I would appreciate someone helping me with this equation!
Thanks!
