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

x = 2

Solution steps

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

Move

2

to the right side

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

Multiply both sides by

x - 3

- 1 = x - 3

Switch sides

x - 3 = - 1

Move

3

to the right side

x = 2

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 3

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = 2

\frac{6}{8} = \frac{3}{x}

\frac{3 x - 1}{6 x + 2} = 4

\frac{3 x}{x + 1} = 8 - \frac{3}{x + 1}

\frac{x + 7}{x - 2} = \frac{2}{x}

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