Solve x (2x^2/x-5)+(10x/x-5)-24=0
  • 1 answers

Sia ? 6 years, 5 months ago

We have given,

{tex}\left( \frac { 2 x } { x - 5 } \right) ^ { 2 } + 5 \left( \frac { 2 x } { x - 5 } \right) - 24 = 0{/tex}

Let {tex}\frac { 2 x } { ( x - 5 ) } \text { be } y{/tex}

{tex}\therefore \quad y ^ { 2 } + 5 y - 24 = 0{/tex}

Now factorise,

{tex}y^2+8y-3y-24=0{/tex}

{tex}y(y+8)-3(y+8)=0{/tex}

{tex}(y+8)(y-3)=0{/tex}

{tex}y=3,-8{/tex}

Putting y=3

{tex}\frac { 2 x } { x - 5 } = 3{/tex}

2x = 3x - 15

x = 15

Putting y = -8

 {tex}\frac { 2 x } { x - 5 } = - 8{/tex}

2x = -8x + 40

10x = 40

x = 4

Hence, x is 15 , 4
