Find the value of x and −x , if 1 5 3 73; 11,7; 23 ; ; 4 ; 39. 6 13 8 x = − − − −

The equation you've provided appears to involve fractions and is likely a sequence or pattern where you need to find the value of \( x \). However, the formatting is unclear. Let's interpret and rewrite the expression for clarity.

If the equation involves a sequence of numbers like this:

\[
\frac{1}{5}, \frac{3}{73}; \frac{11}{7}; \frac{23}{x}; \frac{4}{39}; \frac{6}{13}; \frac{8}{-x}
\]

And you need to solve for \( x \) such that the pattern or relationship holds, let's consider what the pattern might be. 

If it's a proportion or some relationship between these fractions, you'd solve for \( x \) accordingly.

### Step 1: Identify the pattern
Let's assume this is a sequence where each term relates to the previous in a specific way.

### Step 2: Analyze the sequence

Given:
\[
\frac{23}{x}, \quad \text{and} \quad \frac{8}{-x}
\]
might be the two terms where \( x \) needs to be calculated.

### Step 3: Set up the equation

If the sequence is such that \( \frac{23}{x} \) and \( \frac{8}{-x} \) are related (e.g., the next term follows a multiplication or division pattern):

\[ 
\frac{23}{x} = \frac{8}{-x} 
\]

### Step 4: Solve for \( x \)
To solve for \( x \), cross-multiply:

\[
23(-x) = 8x
\]

\[
-23x = 8x
\]

Add \( 23x \) to both sides:

\[
0 = 31x 
\]

This implies \( x = 0 \), but substituting \( x = 0 \) into the original fractions would result in division by zero, which is undefined.

### Re-evaluation

If there's another intended pattern or relationship (e.g., alternating signs, common numerators/denominators, etc.), it should be re-examined. Since the current solution doesn't work, please clarify the sequence or the intended pattern.

Do you need further details on this solution, or would you like to specify more about the problem?

### Related Questions
1. Could the sequence be arithmetic or geometric, and how would that affect \( x \)?
2. If there is a different pattern in the numerators or denominators, what could it be?
3. What happens if we assume \( x \) has a different relationship in the sequence?
4. Could the fractions involve summing or subtracting terms?
5. What if \( x \) is complex? How would we solve that?

**Tip:** When faced with sequences involving fractions, always consider potential arithmetic or geometric patterns first.
