Solve for x :
$\frac{1}{2 x - 3} + \frac{1}{x - 5} = 1 \frac{1}{9}, x \neq \frac{3}{2}, 5$

Open in App

Solution

Given, $\frac{1}{2 x - 3} + \frac{1}{x - 5} = 1 \frac{1}{9}$
$\frac{x - 5 + 2 x - 3}{(2 x - 3) (x - 5)} = \frac{10}{9}$
$\frac{3 x - 8}{2 x^{2} - 13 x + 15} = \frac{10}{9}$
$9 (3 x - 8) = 10 (2 x^{2} - 13 x + 15)$
$27 x - 72 = 20 x^{2} - 130 x + 150$
$20 x^{2} - 157 x + 222 = 0$
$20 x^{2} - 120 x - 37 x + 222 = 0$
$20 x (x - 6) - 37 (x - 6) = 0$
$(x - 6) (20 x - 37) = 0$
Either x - 6 = 0 or 20x - 37 = 0
$\Rightarrow x = 6, x = \frac{37}{20}$
