solving for x help me please!

[irynat]

x/(x-2)+3/(x^2+4x-12)=1

Next time, post like this:
(x + 3) / (x - 2) = 1 / (x^2 + 4x - 12)

Start by factoring x^2 + 4x -12
If you can't do that, then not much we can do here...

BBCode tags for FIXED-WIDTH FONT

... i couldn't figure out how to put a space there

If you would like to "draw" rational expressions using multiple lines, then you could click the Code button, and

[code]put   your    text      between        the          delimiting tags in square brackets
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
               as shown at the beginning and end of this "irrational picture"

[/code]

Neither the beginning [ code ] or ending [ /code ] tag will display. (I displayed them in the example above by typing them twice. I displayed them in the previous sentence by putting spaces inside the brackets.)

You will find it handy to click the Preview button before clicking the Submit button.

Cheers,
