Question

Solve algebraically and graphically 6/x+8/x+5=3

Answer 1

Answer:

-7

Step-by-step explanation:

6/x + 8/x + 5 = 3

6/x + 8/x = -2

(6 + 8)/x  = -2

14/x = -2

14 = -2x

x = -7

Answer 2

Answer:

$\Large \boxed{x=-7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$6/x+8/x+5=3$

Subtracting 5 from both sides.

$6/x+8/x=-2$

Adding fractions since denominators are equal.

$14/x=-2$

Multiplying x on both sides.

$14=-2x$

Dividing both sides by -2.

$-7=x$
