Decimal Notation

x = - 19.995

Solution steps

\frac{5}{2 x + 40} = 500

Multiply both sides by

2 x + 40

5 = 500 (2 x + 40)

Switch sides

500 (2 x + 40) = 5

Divide both sides by

500

2 x + 40 = \frac{1}{100}

x = - \frac{3999}{200}

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = - 20

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = - \frac{3999}{200}

\frac{2 x ^{2} + 6 x - 8}{x + 4} = 0

y, x = \frac{1}{y} - 2

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

\frac{2 x - 6}{x} = \frac{x - 3}{3}

\frac{1}{x} + 5 = \frac{1}{2 x}
