x(2x+3)-4(x-1)=2x(x+1)
Many thanks Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2(1-x)+3(x+4)=5(x+3)
2-2x + 3x+12 = 5x+15
x + 14 = 5x + 15
4x = -1
x = -1/4
------------------------
x(2x+3)-4(x-1)=2x(x+1)
2x^2+3x -4x+4 = 2x^2+2x
Simplify:
2x^2 -x + 4 = 2x^2 + 2x
3x = 4
x = 4/3
