The correct Answer is:
To solve the equation \[ \frac{2x-3}{x-1} - 4\left(\frac{x-1}{2x-3}\right) = 3, \quad x \neq 1, \left(\frac{3}{2}\right) \] we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Substitute for \( t \) Let \[ t = \frac{2x-3}{x-1} \] Then, the equation can be rewritten as: \[ t - 4 \cdot \frac{1}{t} = 3 \] ### Step 2: Clear the fraction Multiply through by \( t \) (assuming \( t \neq 0 \)): \[ t^2 - 4 = 3t \] ### Step 3: Rearrange the equation Rearranging gives: \[ t^2 - 3t - 4 = 0 \] ### Step 4: Factor the quadratic equation We can factor the quadratic: \[ (t - 4)(t + 1) = 0 \] ### Step 5: Solve for \( t \) Setting each factor to zero gives: \[ t - 4 = 0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad t = 4 \] \[ t + 1 = 0 \quad \Rightarrow \quad t = -1 \] ### Step 6: Substitute back to find \( x \) Now we substitute back for \( t \): 1. For \( t = 4 \): \[ \frac{2x - 3}{x - 1} = 4 \] Cross-multiplying gives: \[ 2x - 3 = 4(x - 1) \] Expanding and rearranging: \[ 2x - 3 = 4x - 4 \quad \Rightarrow \quad -2x = -1 \quad \Rightarrow \quad x = \frac{1}{2} \] 2. For \( t = -1 \): \[ \frac{2x - 3}{x - 1} = -1 \] Cross-multiplying gives: \[ 2x - 3 = -1(x - 1) \] Expanding and rearranging: \[ 2x - 3 = -x + 1 \quad \Rightarrow \quad 3x = 4 \quad \Rightarrow \quad x = \frac{4}{3} \] ### Final Solutions The solutions to the equation are: \[ x = \frac{1}{2} \quad \text{and} \quad x = \frac{4}{3} \] ---
