Question

HELP ASAP PLEASE!!!!

Answer 1

Only problem is with the simplifying.

We all know that 5/5 = 1, it is natural to  assume (x+a)/(x+a) is also 1, but in some cases where x+a=0, it is undefined. In this equation, where they simplify (x-2) and (x-6), you must say that x is not 2 nor 6 or, you just delete 0/0 which is undefined.

Therefore the only solution would be x=-1

Answer 2

The answer is x=-1
