8/x-2= 8/(x+2)

\frac{8}{x} - 2 = \frac{8}{x + 2}

x = - 4, x = 2

Solution steps

\frac{8}{x} - 2 = \frac{8}{x + 2}

Multiply by LCM

8 (x + 2) - 2 x (x + 2) = 8 x

Solve

8 (x + 2) - 2 x (x + 2) = 8 x : x = - 4, x = 2

x = - 4, x = 2

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 0, x = - 2

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = - 4, x = 2

21.8 = \frac{49}{x ^{2}}

120 = \frac{180 ( n - 2 )}{n}

\frac{6}{4 - 5 x} = \frac{2}{x}

\frac{4}{x ^{2}} = \frac{7}{x} + 2

x, u = \frac{y}{x}
