Question

identify all values of that make the equation true.
Please explain them as step by step !!
Thank you!!

Answer 1

Part a

$\frac{2x+1}{x}=\frac{1}{x-2}\\\\(2x+1)(x-2)=x\\\\2x^2 -3x-2=x\\\\2x^2 - 4x-2=0\\\\x^2 - 2x-1=0\\\\x=\frac{2 \pm \sqrt{8}}{2}\\\\x=1 \pm \sqrt{2}$

Part C

$\frac{x+3}{1-x}=\frac{x+1}{x+2}\\\\(x+3)(x+2)=(1-x)(x+1)\\\\x^2 +5x+6=-x^2 +1\\\\2x^2 + 5x+5=0\\\\x=\frac{-5 \pm \sqrt{-15}}{4}\\\\x=\frac{-5 \pm i\sqrt{15}}{4}$
