Solve for x.

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

$\boxed{x=5},x=-9$

Step-by-step explanation:

To rid the denominators, multiply both sides by $(x-3)(x+1)$ .

We get:

$6(x+1)-12(x-3)=(x-3)(x+1)$

Simplifying, we have:

$6x+6-12x+36=x^2-3x+x-3,\\-6x+42=x^2-2x-3,\\x^2+4x-45=0$

Solving, we get:

$x^2+4x-45=0,\\(x-5)(x+9)=0,\\x=5,x=-9$

Therefore, the solution with the greatest value is $x=\boxed{5}$

What is the least prime number greater than 50?

uysha [10]

A prime number is a number that has only two factors: 1 and itself
For example, the number 7 has two factors: 1,7 This makes 7 a prime number
Since the number has to be greater than 50, we can go to the next whole number; 51
51 has four factors, 1,3,17,51 This is not our prime number
52 is even so obviously it's not prime because you can divide by two
53 has only two factors; 1,53 This means that its prime and the answer is 53 :)
If you have any questions feel free to ask
