Exercises 41–60 contain rational equations with variables in denominators. For each equation, a. write the value or values of the variable that make a denominator zero. These are the restrictions on the variable. b. Keeping the restrictions in mind, solve the equation. 4/x = 5/2x + 3
검증된 단계별 안내1
Identify the denominators in the equation \(\frac{4}{x} = \frac{5}{2x + 3}\). The denominators are \(x\) and \(2x + 3\).
Find the values of \(x\) that make the denominators zero to determine the restrictions. Solve \(x = 0\) and \(2x + 3 = 0\) separately.
From \(2x + 3 = 0\), solve for \(x\) by isolating \(x\): \(2x = -3\), so \(x = -\frac{3}{2}\). These values (\(x = 0\) and \(x = -\frac{3}{2}\)) are restrictions and cannot be solutions.
Multiply both sides of the original equation by the least common denominator (LCD), which is \(x(2x + 3)\), to eliminate the denominators. This gives: \(4(2x + 3) = 5x\).
Expand and simplify the resulting equation, then solve for \(x\). After finding the solutions, check each against the restrictions to ensure they are valid.

Rational Equations
Rational equations are equations that involve fractions with polynomials in the numerator and denominator. Solving them often requires finding a common denominator or multiplying both sides by the least common denominator to eliminate fractions and simplify the equation.

Restrictions on the Variable
Restrictions are values of the variable that make any denominator zero, which are undefined in mathematics. Identifying these values is crucial before solving the equation to avoid invalid solutions and ensure the solution set is correct.
