Solution

We have:t(2t+5)5(12t)=2(3+4t)3(t4)t2t55+10t =6+8t3t+12t 2t+10t8t+3t=6+12+5+5 (By transposition )14t10t =284t=28x=28741x=7CHECK: Substituting x=7 in the given equation, we get:LHS=t(2t+5)5(12t) =t2t55+10t =11t2t10 =9t10 =9×710 =6310 =53 RHS=2(3+4t)3(t4) =6+8t3t+12 =5t+18 =5×7+18 =35+18 = 53 ∴ LHS=RHS Hence, x=7 is a solution of the given equation.
