6/(x+7)= 7/(x-2)

\frac{6}{x + 7} = \frac{7}{x - 2}

x = - 61

Solution steps

\frac{6}{x + 7} = \frac{7}{x - 2}

Cross multiply

6 x - 12 = 7 x + 49

Move

12

to the right side

6 x = 7 x + 61

Move

7 x

to the left side

- x = 61

Divide both sides by

- 1

x = - 61

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = - 7, x = 2

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = - 61

\frac{144 - 8 x}{2 x + 4} = 0

\frac{x}{x - 5} = 2 + \frac{5}{x - 5}

7 - \frac{5}{x} = \frac{30}{x}

\frac{5}{x - 2} = 7 - \frac{10}{x + 2}

\frac{1}{2 ( 6 - 2 f )} = 6
