To solve for x in the equation 300/x(x+10) = 3/20, we can first simplify the equation by multiplying both sides by 20 to get rid of the fraction:
20 300/x(x+10) = 20 3/206000/x(x+10) = 36000 = 3x(x+10)
Next, we can expand the equation and set it equal to zero to solve for x:
6000 = 3x^2 + 30x3x^2 + 30x - 6000 = 0
Now, we can factor out a 3 from the equation:
3(x^2 + 10x - 2000) = 0
Then, we can factor the quadratic equation x^2 + 10x - 2000 to find the solution for x:
3(x + 50)(x - 40) = 0
Setting each factor equal to zero gives us:
x + 50 = 0 OR x - 40 = 0
x = -50 OR x = 40
Therefore, the solutions for x are x = -50 or x = 40.
