To solve for x in the given equation, we need to first simplify both sides of the equation and then find a common denominator to combine like terms.
Starting with the left side of the equation:
3x/(2x+5) - 4x/(2x-5)
To combine the fractions, we need to find a common denominator, which will be (2x+5)(2x-5):
(3x(2x-5) - 4x(2x+5))/((2x+5)(2x-5))
Expanding and simplifying the numerator:
(6x^2 - 15x - 8x^2 - 20x)/((2x+5)(2x-5))
(-2x^2 - 35x)/((2x+5)(2x-5)) = (-x(2x + 35))/((2x+5)(2x-5))
Moving on to the right side of the equation:
28 - 53x/(4x^2 - 25)
We can factor the denominator to simplify the fraction:
4x^2 - 25 = (2x - 5)(2x + 5)
Combining the terms on the right side:
28 - 53x/((2x - 5)(2x + 5))
Now we have the equation in the form:
(-x(2x + 35))/((2x+5)(2x-5)) = 28 - 53x/((2x - 5)(2x + 5))
To solve for x, we can now cross multiply to eliminate the denominators:
(-x(2x + 35)) = (28 - 53x)(2x + 5)
Expanding both sides and simplifying the equation will lead to a quadratic equation that can be solved to find the value(s) of x.
