The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \( 5x - \frac{35}{x} = 18 \) with the condition \( x \neq 0 \), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Eliminate the fraction Multiply both sides of the equation by \( x \) (since \( x \neq 0 \)): \[ x(5x) - 35 = 18x \] This simplifies to: \[ 5x^2 - 35 = 18x \] ### Step 2: Rearrange the equation Rearranging the equation gives us: \[ 5x^2 - 18x - 35 = 0 \] ### Step 3: Factor the quadratic equation Now we need to factor the quadratic equation \( 5x^2 - 18x - 35 = 0 \). To do this, we look for two numbers that multiply to \( 5 \times -35 = -175 \) and add up to \( -18 \). The numbers that fit this are \( -25 \) and \( 7 \). ### Step 4: Rewrite the middle term We can rewrite the equation as: \[ 5x^2 - 25x + 7x - 35 = 0 \] ### Step 5: Factor by grouping Now we can group the terms: \[ (5x^2 - 25x) + (7x - 35) = 0 \] Factoring out the common factors in each group: \[ 5x(x - 5) + 7(x - 5) = 0 \] ### Step 6: Factor out the common binomial Now we can factor out \( (x - 5) \): \[ (5x + 7)(x - 5) = 0 \] ### Step 7: Solve for x Setting each factor to zero gives us: 1. \( 5x + 7 = 0 \) \[ 5x = -7 \implies x = -\frac{7}{5} \] 2. \( x - 5 = 0 \) \[ x = 5 \] ### Step 8: Final solutions Thus, the solutions to the equation are: \[ x = 5 \quad \text{and} \quad x = -\frac{7}{5} \]
