    x = x = -25/14

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Solve for 2/2x + 2+1/5 = 6/x + 5

    to solve for this question we first of all collect the like terms

    from

    2/2x + 2+1/5 = 6/x + 5

    we have,

    2 + 1/5 - 5 = 6/x - 2/2x

    find the lcm

    (10 + 1-25) / 5 = (12 - 2) / 2x

    we have,

    -14/5 = 10/2x

    Using a cross multiplication method

    -14 * 2x = 5 * 10

    -28x = 50

    divide both sides by-28

    -28x/-28 = 50/-28

    x = 50/-28

    x = -25/14

    x = - 10/7

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Step 1: Solve for x

    2/x + 2 + 1/5 = 6/x + 5

    2/x + 11/5 = 6/x + 5 - 2/x

    11/5 - 5 = 4/x + 5 - 5

    -14/5 * x = 4/x * x

    -14/5x * - 5/14 = 4 * - 5/14

    x = - 10/7

    Answer: x = - 10/7
