3/(x-1) - 1/(x^2-1) = 5/(x-1)
Subtract 3/(x-1) from both sides
-1/(x^2-1) = 2/(x-1)
Factor x^2 - 1
-1/[(x-1)(x+1] = 2/(x-1)
Multiply by (x-1)(x+1) on both sides
-1 = 2 (x+1)
-1 = 2x + 2
Subtract 2 from both sides
-3 = 2x
Divide by 2 on both sides
-3/2 = x

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
1/12,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Data provided in the question:
Size of a population of mustard plants = 6,000
Now,
According to genetic drift theory
The probability that a newly-arisen mutation will become fixed is given using the formula
⇒ 1 ÷ [ 2 × Size of a population of mustard plants ]
⇒ 1 ÷ [ 2 ×6,000 ]
⇒ [ 1 ÷ 12,000 ]
Hence,
probability that a newly-arisen mutation will become fixed in this population is 1/12,000
It looks like it’s already answered I’m confused about that
