I finally figured out the answer, I posted it so you could see it. I had to solve it algebratically.
1/4 = 3 - (2x-1)/(x+2)
4(x+2)(1/4) = 4(x+2)(3) -4(x+2)(2x-1/x+2)
x+2=12x+24-8x+4
x+2=4x+28
-3x=26
x=-26/3
1/4 = 3 - (2x-1)/(x+2)
4(x+2)(1/4) = 4(x+2)(3) -4(x+2)(2x-1/x+2)
x+2=12x+24-8x+4
x+2=4x+28
-3x=26
x=-26/3
you are correct!
