x/(x+2)= 3/2

\frac{x}{x + 2} = \frac{3}{2}

x = - 6

Solution steps

\frac{x}{x + 2} = \frac{3}{2}

Cross multiply

x \cdot 2 = 3 x + 6

Move

3 x

to the left side

- x = 6

Divide both sides by

- 1

x = - 6

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = - 2

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = - 6

\frac{3}{3 b + 4} = \frac{2}{b - 4}

I, R = \frac{E}{I}

x^{- 2} + x^{- 1} - 30 = 0

30 x - 11 = \frac{30}{x}

\frac{1}{x} = 4
