1/x = 1/4+1/4

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

x = 2

Solution steps

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

Multiply both sides by

x

1 = \frac{1}{2} x

Switch sides

\frac{1}{2} x = 1

Multiply both sides by

2

x = 2

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 0

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = 2

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

0.2 = \frac{6 + 2 x}{12 + x}

\frac{48}{n} = 6

\frac{8}{( x + 8 ) ^{2}} = 7

8 - \frac{6}{x ^{2}} = 0
