5-1/(k+3)= 2/(k+3)

5 - \frac{1}{k + 3} = \frac{2}{k + 3}

k = - \frac{12}{5}

Decimal Notation

k = - 2.4

Solution steps

5 - \frac{1}{k + 3} = \frac{2}{k + 3}

Multiply both sides by

k + 3

5 (k + 3) - 1 = 2

Move

1

to the right side

5 (k + 3) = 3

Divide both sides by

5

k + 3 = \frac{3}{5}

Move

3

to the right side

k = - \frac{12}{5}

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

k = - 3

Combine undefined points with solutions:

k = - \frac{12}{5}

3.6 = \frac{3}{x}

- \frac{2}{u + 8} = - 7

\frac{13 + 2 t}{4 t + 1} = \frac{3}{4}

\frac{x - 7}{4 x} + 1 = \frac{x + 3}{x}

x = (\frac{x}{2 + x}) - 5
