x-2/x =1

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

x = 2, x = - 1

Solution steps

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

Multiply both sides by

x

x^{2} - 2 = x

Solve

x^{2} - 2 = x : x = 2, x = - 1

x = 2, x = - 1

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 0

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = 2, x = - 1

\frac{4}{( x + 2 )} + \frac{4}{x} = 1

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

\frac{x}{3} = \frac{27}{x}

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

\frac{3 x}{x + 3} = 6 - \frac{9}{x + 3}
