(x/(4x-4)+(5/(x^2-1)=1/4
\n" ); document.write( "---------
\n" ); document.write( "Factor to get:
\n" ); document.write( "x/[4(x-1)] + 5/[(x+1)(x-1)] = 1/4
\n" ); document.write( "--------------
\n" ); document.write( "lcm = 4(x-1)(x+1)
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply thru by lcm to get:
\n" ); document.write( "x (x+1) + 5*4 = (x+1)(X-1)
\n" ); document.write( "Simplify:
\n" ); document.write( "x^2+x + 20 = x^2-1
\n" ); document.write( "x = -21
\n" ); document.write( "==============
