(3-x)/(4x-3)= 1/5

\frac{3 - x}{4 x - 3} = \frac{1}{5}

x = 2

Solution steps

\frac{3 - x}{4 x - 3} = \frac{1}{5}

Cross multiply

15 - 5 x = 4 x - 3

Move

15

to the right side

- 5 x = 4 x - 18

Move

4 x

to the left side

- 9 x = - 18

Divide both sides by

- 9

x = 2

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = \frac{3}{4}

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = 2

5 = \frac{2}{3 ( 8 x - 6 )}

\frac{7}{2 x} = 3

\frac{X - 465}{X} = \frac{2}{5}

x + 3 (x - 2) = \frac{3 ( 2 x - 3 )}{x}

x^{- 1} + x - 2 = 0
