I usually clear my fractions, in this case I multiplied each term by 3 ok, your way... -5 = (2/3)(-4) + b -5 = -8/3 + b -5 + 8/3 = b -15/3 + 8/3 = b -7/3 = b see how much more complicated it gets if you keep the fractions ?

Making fractions look presentable is just about impossible in this format. Write your fractions this way: 2/(x-9) = 2/(x^2 - 6x - 27) 2/(x-9) = 2/((x-9)(x+3)) multiply both sides by (x-9)(x+3) 2(x+3) = 2 2x + 6 = 2 x = -2 or, you could cross-multiply 2x^2 - 12x - 54 = 2x - 18 ...
