Question

solve the completing square method first x+3/x=4​

Answer 1

Answer:

Multiply all terms by x and cancel:

xx+3=4x

x2+3=4x(Simplify both sides of the equation)

x2+3−4x=4x−4x(Subtract 4x from both sides)

x2−4x+3=0

(x−1)(x−3)=0(Factor left side of equation)

x−1=0 or x−3=0(Set factors equal to 0)

x=1 or x=3

Check answers. (Plug them in to make sure they work.)

x=1(Works in original equation)

x=3(Works in original equation)

Answer:

x=1 or x=3
