\frac{- 5 + 4}{x + 1} = - \frac{1}{4}

x = 3

Solution steps

\frac{- 5 + 4}{x + 1} = - \frac{1}{4}

Cross multiply

- 4 = - (x + 1)

- 1

x + 1 = 4

Move

1

to the right side

x = 3

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = - 1

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = 3

u, s = - \frac{1}{u} t r

\frac{3 ^{2} - x}{27 - x} = 0

\frac{1}{2 y} = 4

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

\frac{- 3}{4 x ^{1}} = \frac{- 3}{4}
