Question 278515
<font face="Garamond" size="+2">


Your equation is spot on:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ x\ +\ \frac{60}{x}\ =\ -23]


Multiply both sides by *[tex \Large x]


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ x^2\ +\ 60\ =\ -23x]


Standard form:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ x^2\ +\ 23x\ +\ 60\ =\ 0]


Now just factor the quadratic.  Check both roots to ensure they are both valid.
