How do you solve the following? 3/(x - 3) - 4/(x √4x + 3

We have to solve


  • 3/(x -
    3) - 4/(x - 2) = -4

  • sqrt (4x) + 3 <
    6.


Now 3/(x - 3) - 4/(x - 2) =
-4


multiply all terms by
(x-3)(x-2)


=> 3(x-2) - 4(x-3) =
-4(x-3)(x-2)


=> 3x - 6 - 4x + 12 = -4 ( x^2 - 5x +
6)


=> 6 - x = -4x^2 + 20x -
24


=> 4x^2 - 21x + 30 =0


Now
find the roots of 4x^2 - 21x + 30 =0 using


[–b + sqrt (b^2 – 4ac)]/
2a and [–b - sqrt (b^2 – 4ac)]/ 2a


here b = -21, a = 4 and c =
30


sqrt (b^2 - 4ac) = sqrt
-39


Therefore the roots are 21/8 - i*(sqrt 39)/8 and
21/8 + i*(sqrt 39)/8.



sqrt (4x) + 3
< 6


=> sqrt 4x <
3


=> sqrt 4x < sqrt
9


=> 4x < 9


=> x
< 9/4


Therefore x<
9/4
