(x+2)/8 = 9/(x+8)

\frac{x + 2}{8} = \frac{9}{x + 8}

x = 4, x = - 14

Solution steps

\frac{x + 2}{8} = \frac{9}{x + 8}

Cross multiply

(x + 2) (x + 8) = 72

Solve

(x + 2) (x + 8) = 72 : x = 4, x = - 14

x = 4, x = - 14

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = - 8

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = 4, x = - 14

\frac{18}{x - 6} + 2 = \frac{6}{x - 6}

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

\frac{4}{9 y - 10} = - 6

\frac{1920}{100} = \frac{400}{x}

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