Question

3/x+2 = 2/x−1 pleasee help

Answer 1

So you have:
$\frac{3}{x} + 2 = \frac{2}{x} - 1$

1) Start off by multiplying both sides by x to simplify the problem:
$\frac{3}{x} + 2 = \frac{2}{x} - 1 \\ x(\frac{3}{x} + 2) = (\frac{2}{x} - 1)x\\ 3 + 2x = 2 - x$

2) Now isolate the x by moving all terms with x onto one side and all other terms onto the other side:
$3 + 2x = 2 - x\\ 3x = -1$

3) Finally, divide by 3 on both sides to find the value of x:
$3x = -1\\ x = \frac{-1}{3}$

Answer: x = $\frac{-1}{3}$
