Answer:

x1= -4, x2 = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Move expression to the left-hand side:

1/4x-3/4-7/x=0

Write all the numerators above a common denominator:

x^2 - 3x - 28 /4x =0

When the quotient of expressions equal 0, the numerator has to be 0

x^2 + 4x - 7x - 28 = 0

x(x+4) - 7(x+4) =0

(x+4) × (x-7) =0

Separate into possible cases:

x+4=0

x-7=0
