(x+2)/(x+8)= 1/(x+2)

\frac{x + 2}{x + 8} = \frac{1}{x + 2}

x = 1, x = - 4

Solution steps

\frac{x + 2}{x + 8} = \frac{1}{x + 2}

Cross multiply

(x + 2)^{2} = x + 8

Solve

(x + 2)^{2} = x + 8 : x = 1, x = - 4

x = 1, x = - 4

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = - 8, x = - 2

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = 1, x = - 4

\frac{2 x ^{2} - 5}{x + 1} = x - 1

\frac{x ^{2} + 9}{3 x ^{2}} = \frac{13}{12}

x = \frac{6}{2 x + 1}

\frac{3 x}{2} + \frac{5 - x}{x} = 4

\frac{1}{s + a}
