x + \frac{7}{x} = - 8

x = - 1, x = - 7

Solution steps

x + \frac{7}{x} = - 8

Multiply both sides by

x

x^{2} + 7 = - 8 x

Solve

x^{2} + 7 = - 8 x : x = - 1, x = - 7

x = - 1, x = - 7

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 0

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = - 1, x = - 7

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

\frac{m}{m + 9} = \frac{63}{22}

\frac{6}{a + 1} = \frac{a}{a - 1}

60 w - \frac{270}{w ^{2}} = 0

\frac{22}{n} = \frac{88}{100}
