0=(x^2-4)/(x-2)

0 = \frac{x ^{2} - 4}{x - 2}

x = - 2

Solution steps

0 = \frac{x ^{2} - 4}{x - 2}

Simplify

\frac{x ^{2} - 4}{x - 2} : x + 2

0 = x + 2

Switch sides

x + 2 = 0

Move

2

to the right side

x = - 2

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = - 2

10 - \frac{19}{x} = 4 + \frac{5}{x}

\frac{1000 p - 10000}{1000 p} = 0.25

\frac{x}{x - 4} = 7

\frac{6}{x} = \frac{10}{2}

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