Solution for 5/x=2x-3 equation:

5/x=2x-3

We move all terms to the left:

5/x-(2x-3)=0


Domain of the equation: x!=0

x∈R


We get rid of parentheses

5/x-2x+3=0

We multiply all the terms by the denominator


-2x*x+3*x+5=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

3x-2x*x+5=0

Wy multiply elements

a = -2; b = 3; c = +5;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 32-4·(-2)·5
Δ = 49
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{49}=7$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(3)-7}{2*-2}=\frac{-10}{-4}
=2+1/2
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(3)+7}{2*-2}=\frac{4}{-4}
=-1
