Answer:
E) -3, 5
Step-by-step explanation:
x – 15 / x = 2
x^2 - 15 = 2x
x^2 - 2x - 15 = 0
(x - 5)(x + 3) = 0
x - 5 = 0; x = 5
x + 3 = 0; x = -3
Solutions: -3, 5
For this case we must solve the following equation:
[tex]x- \frac {15} {x} = 2[/tex]
We manipulate the equation algebraically:
[tex]\frac {x ^ 2-15} {x} = 2\\x ^ 2-15 = 2x\\x ^ 2-2x-15 = 0[/tex]
To solve, we factor the equation. We must find two numbers that when multiplied by -15 and when summed by -2. These numbers are:
+3 and -5.
[tex](x + 3) (x-5) = 0[/tex]
So, the roots are:
[tex]x_ {1} = - 3\\x_ {2} = 5[/tex]
