(x-4)/(x+6)= 12/18

\frac{x - 4}{x + 6} = \frac{12}{18}

x = 24

Solution steps

\frac{x - 4}{x + 6} = \frac{12}{18}

Cross multiply

18 x - 72 = 12 x + 72

Move

72

to the right side

18 x = 12 x + 144

Move

12 x

to the left side

6 x = 144

Divide both sides by

6

x = 24

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = - 6

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = 24

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

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

\frac{8 x ^{2}}{x ^{4} + 16} = 1

\frac{x}{x ^{2}} = 2

5 x + 7 = \frac{5}{x - 1}
