Solve the rational equation by multiplying both sides by the lcd. check your results for extraneous solutions. 3 x2 5x 6 x − 1 x 2 = 7 x 3 x = is a solution. x = is an extraneous solution.

Respuesta :

The solution and extraneous solution of the equation as given are; x=7 and x=-2 respectively.

What is the solution of the equation?

It follows that the equation given is;

(3/(x²+5x+6)) + ((x-1)/(x+2)) = 7/(x+3)

Hence, by multiplying both sides by (x²+5x+6); we have;

3 + x² +2x -3 = 7x + 14.

x²-5x -14 = 0

On this note, the solutions of the quadratic equation are; x =7 and x=-2.

It therefore follows that x= 7 is a solution while x=-2 is an extraneous solution because it renders (x-1)/(x+2) undefined.
