Anyone like to take a look at this math problem?

[NorWayItsOver]

At this point I’m unsure if I solved it correctly, and I’m also not sure how to properly check for extraneous solutions.


Can someone help finish this and verify the solution

its a polynomial now, just put it on your calc to find the x, or just stop here

No thanks

X=1/2

I just realized there’s a mistake, after solving the quadratic, I need to check for extraneous solutions. When I substitute back into the original equation, only x=1/2 works, and x=-5 is not valid.

Caged reading this, did you just invent some weird ass way to get the solution?
