2=(x+7)/(x-6)

2 = \frac{x + 7}{x - 6}

x = 19

Solution steps

2 = \frac{x + 7}{x - 6}

Multiply both sides by

x - 6

2 (x - 6) = x + 7

Expand

2 (x - 6) : 2 x - 12

2 x - 12 = x + 7

Move

12

to the right side

2 x = x + 19

Move

x

to the left side

x = 19

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 6

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = 19

a, \frac{b}{a} = c + 3 b

2 = \frac{x + 7}{x - 9}

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

x + \frac{1}{x} = 143

\frac{96}{v} = 6
