Question

(x + 2)(2x - 3) = (2x + 5)(x + 4)​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

(x+2)(2x-3) = (2x+5)(x+4)

2x^2-3x+4x-6 = 2x^2+8x+5x+20

x-6 = 13x+20

-12x = 26

x = -26/12

x = -13/6   Ans.

Answer 2

Answer:

x = 2.17

Explanation:

(x + 2)(2x - 3) = (2x + 5)(x + 4)

x(2x - 3)+2(2x - 3) = x(2x + 5)+4(2x + 5)

2x.x - 3x + 4x - 6 = 2x.x + 5x + 8x + 20

- 3x + 4x - 6 = 5x + 8x + 20

- 3x + 4x = 5x + 8x + 20 + 6

x = 13x + 26

x - 13x = 26

- 12x = 26

x = 2.17
