Question 1041511
x > 0,
:
x = 3 * (1/x) + 2
:
x = (3/x) + 2
multiply both sides of = by x
:
x^2 = 3 + 2x
:
x^2 -2x -3 = 0
:
(x-3) * (x+1) = 0
:
x = 3 or x = -1
:
***************************
we reject x = -1, therefore
x = 3
***************************
:
check our answer
:
3 = 3/3 + 2
3 = 3
our answer checks
