(10)/x =(35)/(x-5)

\frac{10}{x} = \frac{35}{x - 5}

x = - 2

Solution steps

\frac{10}{x} = \frac{35}{x - 5}

Cross multiply

10 x - 50 = x \cdot 35

Move

50

to the right side

10 x = x \cdot 35 + 50

Move

x 35

to the left side

- 25 x = 50

Divide both sides by

- 25

x = - 2

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 0, x = 5

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = - 2

8 = x^{- 3}

g, h = \frac{e}{m g}

x - \frac{1}{x + 4} = - 4

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

\frac{4}{9} = \frac{8}{x}
