x-(15)/x =2

x - \frac{15}{x} = 2

x = 5, x = - 3

Solution steps

x - \frac{15}{x} = 2

Multiply both sides by

x

x^{2} - 15 = 2 x

Solve

x^{2} - 15 = 2 x : x = 5, x = - 3

x = 5, x = - 3

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 0

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = 5, x = - 3

x = \frac{24}{x} + \frac{1}{5}

\frac{x}{2} = \frac{4}{x + 9 x ^{3}}

x + \frac{3}{x} = 5

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

\frac{36}{x} - x = 0
