(-2x)/(x+3)= 2/3

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

x = - \frac{3}{4}

Decimal Notation

x = - 0.75

Solution steps

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

Cross multiply

- 6 x = 2 x + 6

Move

2 x

to the left side

- 8 x = 6

Divide both sides by

- 8

x = - \frac{3}{4}

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = - 3

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = - \frac{3}{4}

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

2 = \frac{5}{r - 5}

80 = \frac{x ^{2} + 300 x}{2 x + 300}

x, y = \frac{1}{4 x}

\frac{4}{x - 1} - \frac{3 - x}{2} = 2
