\frac{1}{y + 2} + \frac{1}{y + 6} = 1

y = - 3 + 5, y = - 3 - 5

Decimal Notation

y = - 0.76393 \dots, y = - 5.23606 \dots

Solution steps

\frac{1}{y + 2} + \frac{1}{y + 6} = 1

Multiply by LCM

2 y + 8 = (y + 2) (y + 6)

Solve

2 y + 8 = (y + 2) (y + 6) : y = - 3 + 5, y = - 3 - 5

y = - 3 + 5, y = - 3 - 5

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

y = - 2, y = - 6

Combine undefined points with solutions:

y = - 3 + 5, y = - 3 - 5

\frac{8}{x + 10} = \frac{4}{2 x - 7}

\frac{9}{x} = \frac{12}{4}

l, e = \frac{25 m}{l}

1 = \frac{2 ( t + 13 )}{10 + t}

\frac{3}{4} - 5 = \frac{2}{x}
