additon: x/x+2 + 1/x-1 = 1

[BB]

This is the last propblem that i have done but not sure if accurate

x/x+2 + 1/x-1 = 1

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

x+1/1 = x

thank you

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

multiply every term by (x+2)(x-1) ...

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

x(x-1) + (x+2) = (x+2)(x-1)

x² - x + x + 2 = x² + x - 2

2 = x - 2

4 = x
