Question

What is the solution to the rational equation x over x squared minus 9 plus 1 over x minus 3 equals 1 over 4x minus 12? (1 point)

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x²/(x²-9) + 1/(x-3) = 1/(4x-12)

4x² + 4(x+3) = 1

4x² + 4x + 11 = 0

Since the discriminant is negative, there are no real solutions.
