7/(4x-5)= 2/(x+1)

\frac{7}{4 x - 5} = \frac{2}{x + 1}

x = 17

Solution steps

\frac{7}{4 x - 5} = \frac{2}{x + 1}

Cross multiply

7 x + 7 = 8 x - 10

Move

7

to the right side

7 x = 8 x - 17

Move

8 x

to the left side

- x = - 17

Divide both sides by

- 1

x = 17

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = \frac{5}{4}, x = - 1

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = 17

\frac{45}{X} - X = 4

x = \frac{x ^{2} - 4}{x - 2}

16 x^{- 6} = 0.25

r, F = \frac{K qq}{r ^{2}}

\frac{4}{6} = \frac{8}{a}
