Question

(Multiple Choice, 20 pts)

Answer 1

Answer:

x = -3, x = 0 is a extraneous solution

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Cross-multiply

3x² = 4x² + 3x

Step 2: Isolate x's

0 = x² + 3x

Step 3: Factor

0 = x(x + 3)

Step 4: Find roots

x = 0, -3

Step 5: Double check work

Plug in both to see if they both work. Only x = 0 should be extraneous. We now have our answer!
