\frac{11}{x - 5} = - \frac{3}{7 + 2 x}

x = - \frac{62}{25}

Decimal Notation

x = - 2.48

Solution steps

\frac{11}{x - 5} = - \frac{3}{7 + 2 x}

Cross multiply

77 + 22 x = - 3 x + 15

Move

77

to the right side

22 x = - 3 x - 62

25

x = - \frac{62}{25}

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 5, x = - \frac{7}{2}

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = - \frac{62}{25}

\frac{3}{x} = \frac{x}{12}

\frac{4}{x} - 5 = \frac{18}{2 x}

\frac{9}{15} = \frac{3}{x}

4 π = \frac{2 π}{x}

\frac{1}{q} = 0.05
