Answer:
c. x² + 2x -5 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
Given expression;
[tex]\frac{5}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{x + 2}{3}[/tex]
Unknown:
The quadratic equation equivalent to this expression:
Solution:
The common denominator here is 3x;
So, multiply both sides by 3x
[tex]\frac{5}{x}[/tex] x 3x = [tex]\frac{x + 2}{3} x[/tex] 3x
5 x 3 = (x + 2)x
15 = x² + 2x
So;
x² + 2x - 15
The quadratic expression is x² + 2x - 15
