You can put this solution on YOUR website!
you are right about - start from common denominator
\n" ); document.write( "\"+1%2Fx%2B1%2F%281%2Bx%29=%28-3%29%2F%28x%5E2%2Bx%29%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+1%2Fx%2B1%2F%281%2Bx%29=%28-3%29%2Fx%28x%2B1%29%29+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28+1%2Bx%2Bx%2B3%29%2Fx%281%2Bx%29=0+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28+2x%2B4%29%2Fx%281%2Bx%29=0+\"
\n" ); document.write( "The fraction is equal 0, when the numerator is equal 0 and the denominator is not equal 0
\n" ); document.write( "\"2x%2B4=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x=-2\"
\n" ); document.write( "Just don't forget to check the answer
\n" ); document.write( "
