To visualize better, look at it like this:
First, see if you can simplify 3/2. You can't, so leave it like that.
The rule for exponents is you subtract the exponent from the bottom (r) from the exponent on the top ()
Put that on the top, and you get
Answer:
x = 3, -2
Step-by-step explanation:
To help us factor, we can split the middle term up into the sum of the terms -3x and 2x:
From there, we can factor out an x from the first two term and a 2 from the last two to obtain the equation
Factoring out an (x - 3) from each term gives us the equation
At this point, we can divide by either x - 3 or x + 2 to obtain the two equations
and
Solving both for x gives us the solutions x = 3 and x = -2. We can verify these by substituting them back into the original equation:
