Answer 2

Required Answer:-

Given:

• (x - 2)(x + 1) = (x - 1)(x + 3)

To find:

• The value of x.

Solution:

We have,

➡ (x - 2)(x + 1) = (x - 1)(x + 3)

Multiply the parentheses,

➡ x(x + 1) - 2(x + 1) = x(x + 3) - 1(x + 3)

Remove parentheses,

➡ x² + x - 2x - 2 = x² + 3x - x - 3

Add up,

➡ x² - x - 2 = x² + 2x - 3

Cancel out like terms,

➡ -x - 2 = 2x - 3

Shift everything to the left,

➡ -x - 2x - 2 + 3 = 0

Collect like terms,

➡ -3x + 1 = 0

Move 1 to the right,

➡ -3x = -1

Divide both sides by -3,

➡ -3x/-3 = -1/-3

➡ x = 1/3

★ Hence, the value of x is 1/3

Answer:

• The value of x is 1/3.
