Answer 2

Answer:

x= 2

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+3)/(x-1) = (2x+1)/(3x-5)

=>(x+3) (3x-5) = (2x+1) (x-1)

=>3x²-5x+9x-15 = 2x²-2x+x-1

=>3x²-2x²-5x+2x+9x-x-15+1 = 0

=>x²-3x+8x-14 = 0

=>x²+5x-14 = 0

=>x²+7x-2x-14 = 0

=>x(x+7)-2(x+7) = 0

=>(x+7) (x-2) = 0

either x=-7 or x=2

since x=-7 doesn't satisfy the given equation thus x=2
