(-10)/x =(-20)/(x+2)

\frac{- 10}{x} = \frac{- 20}{x + 2}

x = 2

Solution steps

\frac{- 10}{x} = \frac{- 20}{x + 2}

Cross multiply

- 10 x - 20 = - x \cdot 20

Move

20

to the right side

- 10 x = - x \cdot 20 + 20

Move

x 20

to the left side

10 x = 20

Divide both sides by

10

x = 2

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 0, x = - 2

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = 2

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

\frac{- 6}{1 y} = - 6

0.15 = \frac{75}{64.66 + x}

\frac{5}{7 x - 49 x + 4} = 45 x - 1

\frac{5}{12} = \frac{6}{y}
