no solution is possible:

z%2F%28z-1%29-+1%2F%28z-1%29=%28z-1%29%2F%28z-1%29=1
and that means the left side of the equation adds to 3, not 0

solve each equation.
z/(z-1)- 1/(z-1)+2=0


z%2F%28z+-+1%29+-+1%2F%28z+-+1%29+%2B+2+=+0, with z%3C%3E1

Solving for z, we get z = 1. However, z%3C%3E1 since a value of 1 for z will make the denominator 0,

and therefore, UNDEFINED. Thus, there is highlight_green%28NO_SOLUTION%29.
