x1 = -8 and x2 = 9?

= x - 8 / x = 2 / x + 9

= Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

= x − 8x = 2x + 9

= x + − 8x = 2x + 9

Multiply all terms by x and cancel:

xx + −8 = 2 + 9x

x² −8 = 9x + 2 ( Simplify both sides of the equation )

x² − 8 − (9x + 2) = 9x + 2 − (9x + 2) (Subtract 9x+2 from both sides)

x² − 9x − 10 = 0

( x + 1 )( x − 10 ) = 0 (Factor left side of equation)

x +1 = 0 or x − 10 = 0 (Set factors equal to 0)

x = − 1 or x = 10

step-by-step explanation:

you can add the two numbers and divide the result by 2. or you can find the gap between the two numbers and add half of this to the smaller number.
