    If you really want an expert to help you, be sure to follow directions and type your <u>subject</u> in the <b>School Subject</b> box. Any other words, <u>including obscure abbreviations</u>, are likely to delay responses from a teacher who knows that subject well.

    d-8/d = d-2/d+10
(d-8)(d+10) = d(d-2)
d^2 + 2d - 80 = d^2 - 2d
4d = 80
d = 20
check:
12/20 = 18/30
    
(d-8)(d+10) = d(d-2)
