Question

solve

(2x+3)/(x+5)   +  (1)/(2)   =   (7)/(2x+10)

Answer 1

Multiply the entire equation by 2(x+5)=2x+10, to produce:

 

2(2x+3) + (x+5) = 7

 

distributing and grouping yields

 

5x+11 = 7 and thus x=-4/5.

 

Plug this back in to both sides of the original equation to verify that this is the correct solution
