2/(x+2)=(x-4)/8

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

x = 6, x = - 4

Solution steps

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

Cross multiply

16 = (x + 2) (x - 4)

Solve

16 = (x + 2) (x - 4) : x = 6, x = - 4

x = 6, x = - 4

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = - 2

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = 6, x = - 4

\frac{9}{x} - \frac{x}{3} = 2

\frac{( y + 2 ) ( y + 3 )}{( y + 2 )} = 1

\frac{2}{x} - 5 - \frac{1}{2 x} = 3

\frac{4}{y + 2} = \frac{7}{y - 4}

d, b = \frac{4 d - c}{d}
