Given
(x + 2)/(x + 5) = x/(x + 6)
Now , Using cross Multiplication
x(x + 5) = (x + 2)(x + 6)
x² + 5x = x² + 6x + 2x + 12
x² + 5x = x² + 8x + 12
x² - x² = 8x - 5x + 12
0 = 3x + 12
3x = -12
x = -12/3
x = -4
Now check or verify our answers
So , Take
(x + 2)/(x + 5) = x/(x + 6)
Now , Using cross Multiplication
x(x + 5) = (x + 2)(x + 6)
or put x = -6
-4( -4 + 5) = ( -4 + 2)(-4 + 6)
-4( 1 ) = (-2)(2)
-4 = -4
LHS = RHS
