Question
Solve the equation 
Hint:
○ To get the value of x first cross multiply with their denominator.
○ Then perform basic operations to get value of x.
The correct answer is: x = -1
○ Given:
Equation:
○ Step 1:
○ Cross multiply:
(x + 3) 2 = (x + 2) 4
2x + 6 = 4x + 8
○ Step 2:
Group like terms:
2x - 4x = 8 - 6
- 2x = 2
x = 
x = -1
- Final Answer:
x = -1
