Assuming that your question is (x-1)(x+2) = [5(x-1)]/x-1

On the right side, the x-1's will cancel out, leaving you with (x-1)(x+2) = 5

expand the left side, giving you x^2 + x -2 = 5
which goes to x^2 +x -7 = 0
the possible values for x are 2.93 and -3.93. I don't think this was your question, so I'll do the other possible question that you might have been asking.

(x-1)(x+2) = 5(x-1)

divide by x-1 on both sides, leaving you with x+2=5
x+2=5
x=5-3
x=3

Does increase in sample size increases degrees of freedom for t-tests.
Elena-2011 [213]
Basically degrees of freedom are related to sample size (n-1). If the df increases, it also stands that the sample size is increasing; the graph of the t-distribution will have skinnier tails, pushing the critical value towards the mean.
