Solve the rational equation below.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

To solve the rational equation, we need to find the value of e that makes the denominator equal to zero because division by zero is undefined. So, we set the denominator equal to zero and solve for e.
4e - 3 = 0
4e = 3
e = 3/4
Now, we substitute this value of e back into the original equation to get:
(2/e) + (1/2e-3) = 5/6
(2/(3/4)) + (1/(2(3/4)-3)) = 5/6
(8/3) + (1/3) = 5/6
9/3 = 5/6
3 = 5/6 (which is not true)
Therefore, there is no solution except when e = 1, which would make the equation undefined. So, the only possible answer is B) 1.
