Answer:

x = -40

Step-by-step explanation:

First we distribute

5x + 35 + 2 = 4x - 4 + 1

Collect like terms

5x + 37 = 4x - 3

Subtract 37 from both sides

5x = 4x - 40

Subtract 4x from both sides

1x = -40 OR x = -40

Flauer [41]

Answer: $1\dfrac{1}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The equation in terms of a is

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{a}{a-1}-\dfrac{a+5}{a}=0\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{a}{a-1}=\dfrac{a+5}{a}\\\\\Rightarrow a^2=(a-1)(a+5)\\\\\Rightarrow a^2=a^2+4a-5\\\\ \Rightarrow 4a=5\\\\\Rightarrow a=\dfrac{5}{4}\ \text{or}\ 1\dfrac{1}{4}$
