x-1/2x=6
We move all terms to the left:
x-1/2x-(6)=0
Domain of the equation: 2x!=0
x!=0/2
x!=0
x∈R
We multiply all the terms by the denominator
x*2x-6*2x-1=0
Wy multiply elements
2x^2-12x-1=0
a = 2; b = -12; c = -1;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = -122-4·2·(-1)
Δ = 152
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

The end solution:
$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{152}=\sqrt{4*38}=\sqrt{4}*\sqrt{38}=2\sqrt{38}$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-12)-2\sqrt{38}}{2*2}=\frac{12-2\sqrt{38}}{4} $
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(-12)+2\sqrt{38}}{2*2}=\frac{12+2\sqrt{38}}{4} $
