(-4)/(x+4)=(-3)/(x+6)

\frac{- 4}{x + 4} = \frac{- 3}{x + 6}

x = - 12

Solution steps

\frac{- 4}{x + 4} = \frac{- 3}{x + 6}

Cross multiply

- 4 x - 24 = - 3 x - 12

Move

24

to the right side

- 4 x = - 3 x + 12

Move

3 x

to the left side

- x = 12

Divide both sides by

- 1

x = - 12

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = - 4, x = - 6

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = - 12

- 16 a = - \frac{2 d}{3 r}

\frac{4}{x} = 10

\frac{4}{x} = 17

\frac{4}{x} = 16

\frac{4 n}{5 n + 7} = \frac{2}{3}
