Question 89884: Solve: x/x^2-36+6/x-6=1/x+6
The truth: I am completely lost & have no clue where to start. I really need help & I appreciate it. Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Solve: x/x^2-36+6/x-6=1/x+6
When you have an equation with denominators, get rid of them.
---------
Multiply both sides by x^2-36
------------
x/(x^2-36) +(6/(x-6)) = 1/(x+6)
x + 6(x+6) = (x-6)
x+6x+36 = x-6
7x+36 = x-6
6x = -42
x=-7
