a) you cant do it

only c is mildly acceptable.

-6x=30
-6x + 6 = 30 + 6
x = 36
But why?

Did you use implicit differentiation or Newton's linear approximation method for this one?

How'd you get from the first line to the second line? Final answer should be just 5/6 + 1/x.

He was showing his work? LCD and then added them. by the way, it should be
5/6 = -1/x; you just moved it to the other side w/out subtracting.

The original problem was 1/2 + 1/3 + 1/x, not
1/2 + 1/3 + 1/x = 0
Sorry if I'm missing something obvious. Though realistically, the OP probably meant the latter, or he meant 1/2 + 1/3 = 1/x
