Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 0

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = \frac{1}{12}

\frac{3 x + 2}{x - 2} = 1

2 + \frac{2}{x + 3} = \frac{3 x}{x + 3}

\frac{1}{x + 1} + 3 = \frac{10}{x + 1}

\frac{x + 2}{4} + \frac{3}{x - 1} = 7

3 + \frac{10}{x} = \frac{1}{2}
