The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \((x+1)/(x-1)=(3x-7)/(2x-3)\), we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Cross-Multiply We start by cross-multiplying the fractions to eliminate the denominators: \[ (x + 1)(2x - 3) = (3x - 7)(x - 1) \] ### Step 2: Expand Both Sides Now we will expand both sides of the equation: Left Side: \[ (x + 1)(2x - 3) = 2x^2 - 3x + 2x - 3 = 2x^2 - x - 3 \] Right Side: \[ (3x - 7)(x - 1) = 3x^2 - 3x - 7x + 7 = 3x^2 - 10x + 7 \] So, we have: \[ 2x^2 - x - 3 = 3x^2 - 10x + 7 \] ### Step 3: Move All Terms to One Side Next, we will move all terms to one side of the equation to set it to zero: \[ 2x^2 - x - 3 - 3x^2 + 10x - 7 = 0 \] Combine like terms: \[ - x^2 + 9x - 10 = 0 \] ### Step 4: Rearrange the Equation We can multiply through by -1 to make the leading coefficient positive: \[ x^2 - 9x + 10 = 0 \] ### Step 5: Factor the Quadratic Equation Now we will factor the quadratic equation: \[ x^2 - 9x + 10 = (x - 10)(x + 1) = 0 \] ### Step 6: Solve for x Set each factor equal to zero: 1. \(x - 10 = 0 \Rightarrow x = 10\) 2. \(x + 1 = 0 \Rightarrow x = -1\) ### Final Solution The solutions to the equation are: \[ x = 10 \quad \text{and} \quad x = -1 \] ---
