By using factorization, [tex]\frac{2x}{x+2} =\frac{6}{x+4}[/tex] , values of x are -2, 3.
What is factorization?
Factorization can be defined as the process of breaking down a number into smaller numbers which when multiplied together arrive at the original number. These numbers are broken down into factors or divisors.
Given
[tex]\frac{2x}{x+2} =\frac{6}{x+4}[/tex]
⇒ 2x(x + 4) = 6(x + 2)
⇒ [tex]2x^{2} +8x = 6x + 12[/tex]
⇒ [tex]2x^{2} +8x-6x-12=0[/tex]
⇒ [tex]2x^{2} +2x -12=0[/tex]
Divide above equation by 2, we get
⇒ [tex]x^{2} +x -6=0[/tex]
⇒ [tex]x^{2} +2x-3x-6=0[/tex]
⇒ [tex]x(x+2)-3(x+2)=0[/tex]
⇒ [tex](x+2)(x-3)=0[/tex]
⇒ x = -2, 3
By using factorization, [tex]\frac{2x}{x+2} =\frac{6}{x+4}[/tex] , values of x are -2, 3.
