Answer 1

$\huge \boxed{ \colorbox{orange}{ \red{x = - 4}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x - 2}{ x + 2} = 3 \\ \\ = > x - 2 = 3(x + 2) \\ \\ = > x - 2 = 3x + 6 \\ \\ = > - 2 = 3x - x + 6 \\ \\ = > - 2 - 6 = 3x - x \\ \\ = > - 8 = 2x \\ \\ = > \frac{ \cancel{- 8 {}}^{ \: - 4} }{ \cancel{2}} = x \\ \\ = > - 4 = x \\ \\ = > x = - 4$

Hence the value of x = -4.

hope it helps.

Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{x - 2}{x + 2} = 3 \\ \bold{ \: by \: cross \: multiplication} \\ x - 2 = 3(x + 2) \\ x - 2 = 3x + 6 \\ x = 3x + 6 + 2 \\ x = 3x + 8 \\ x - 3x = 8 \\ - 2x = 8 \\ x = \frac{8}{-2} = - 4 \\ \red{ \huge \fbox{ \purple{x = - 4}}} \\ \huge\blue{mark \: my \: answer \: as \: brainliest.}$
