How do I solve, 3 2 x + 1 10 3 x + 3 = 0 ?
I am baffled to solve this equation. With graphing I have found the answers to be x=1 and x=-1. I would like to know how to solve this equation though.
I have tried many different approaches including rearranging to these various forms (in no particular order):
3 2 x + 1 3 x + 2 3 x + 3 = 0
3 2 x + 1 ( 1 10 3 x 1 + 3 2 x ) = 0
2 x = 10 3 x 1 3 0 This equation has a term eliminated in it already.
The last equation written is the closest I have gotten to finding the answer, but I don't know how to proceed any further.
