Answer:

x = 0 and x = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

  • given equation :

\frac{2}{x+2}+\frac{1}{5}=\frac{6}{x+5}

  • solving left part:

\frac{12+x}{5*(x+2)} =\frac{6}{x+5}

  • multiplying both sides by 5:

\frac{12+x}{x+2}=\frac{30}{x+5}

  • by cross multiplying:

x^{2} +17x+60=30x+60

  • subtracting both sides by 60:

x^{2} +17x=30x

  • subtracting both sides by 17x:

x^{2}=13x

  • taking 13x to the other side:

x^{2} -13x=0\\x*(x-13)=0

therefore, solution for x : 0 or 13.
