6 + \frac{1}{x + 4} = 5

x = - 5

Solution steps

6 + \frac{1}{x + 4} = 5

Move

6

to the right side

\frac{1}{x + 4} = - 1

Multiply both sides by

x + 4

1 = - (x + 4)

Switch sides

- (x + 4) = 1

Divide both sides by

- 1

x + 4 = - 1

Move

4

to the right side

x = - 5

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = - 4

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = - 5

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

\frac{2}{5 x} = 10

k, 7 - 3 m = \frac{2}{k}

0.083 = \frac{x ^{2}}{0.8 - 2 x}

x^{2} + (\frac{x}{x + 1})^{2} = 15
