solve the following equation: x/x-2 + x-1 / x+1 = -1
Please help!
I assume you mean
x/(x-2)+(x-1)/(x+1)=-1
Denominator is (x-2)(x+1)
x(x+1)+[(x-1)(x-2)]=-[(x-2)(x+1)]
Expand and simplify both the LHS&RHS it boils down to
2x²-2x+2=-[x²-x-2]
2x²-2x+2=-x²+x+2
3x²-3x=0
3x(x-1)=0
3x=0
x=0
I got one value what is the other now?
