The solution to the original equation is 1, 1/6
<h3>Solving equation</h3>
Equations are expressions separated by mathematical operations.
Given the equation below
x/x − 1 = 6x + 1/x − 1
From the given expression, the least common denominator is x -1
Multiply both sides by x-1 to have;
x = 6x(x-1) +1
Expand
x = 6x^2-6x + 1
Equate to zero
6x^2-6x-x + 1 = 0
6x^2-7x +1= 0
The resulting quadratic equation in general form is 6x^2-7x +1 = 0
Factorize
6x^2 -6x-x + 1 = 0
Group the result
6x(x-1)-1(x-1) = 0
(6x-1)(x-1) = 0
6x - 1 = 0 and x -1 = 0
x = 1 and 1/6
Hence the solution to the original equation is 1, 1/6
