x-(3x)/(x-8)=3

x - \frac{3 x}{x - 8} = 3

x = 12, x = 2

Solution steps

x - \frac{3 x}{x - 8} = 3

Multiply both sides by

x - 8

x (x - 8) - 3 x = 3 (x - 8)

Solve

x (x - 8) - 3 x = 3 (x - 8) : x = 12, x = 2

x = 12, x = 2

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 8

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = 12, x = 2

\frac{4}{x} + 1 = \frac{2 x + 2}{x}

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

u, \frac{1}{u} + \frac{1}{v} = \frac{1}{f}

\frac{1}{x - 6} - \frac{6}{x ^{2} - 6 x} = - 9

\frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{x + 5} = \frac{1}{10}
