Using the sutra Shunyam Samyaschahye, Solve the equation:
1. 1/(x + 4) + 1/(x – 6) = 0
2. 5/(3x + 2) + 5/(2x + 8) = 0
3. (2x + 4)/(2x + 1) = (2x + 1)/(2x + 4)
4. (3x + 2)/(5x + 7) = (x + 1)/(3x – 1)

1. 1/(x + 4) + 1/(x – 6) = 0
Here Numerator of two fractions are same = 1,
So According to formula :
x + 4 + x- 6 = 0
⇒ 2x – 2 = 0
⇒ 2x =
⇒ x = 1
2. 5/(3x + 2) + 5/(2x + 8) = 0
Here, Numerator of two fractions are same = 5,
So according to formula :
3x + 2 + 2x + 8 = 0
⇒ 3x + 2x + 2 + 8 = 0
⇒ 5x + 10 = 0
⇒ 5x = -10
⇒ x = -2
3. (2x + 4)/(2x + 1) = (2x + 1)/(2x + 4)
Sum of numerators of both sides
= 2x + 4 + 2x + 1 = 4x + 5
Sum of denominators in both sides
= 2x + 1 + 2x + 4 = 4x + 5
Two sums are equal, so by the formula 4x + 5 = 0
⇒ 4x = -5
⇒ x = -5/4
4. (3x + 2)/(5x + 7) = (x + 1)/(3x – 1)
Sum of numerators of two sides
= 3x + 2 + x + 1 = 4x + 3 …..(i)
Sum of denominators of two sides
= 5x + 7 + 3x – 1 = 8x + 6 …(ii)
Ratio of (i) and (ii) is 1 : 2.
So, by formula, equation any sum equal to zero,
4x + 3 = 0
⇒ 4x = – 3
⇒ x = – 3/4
