(x/x-2)-(x/x+2)=1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

multiply both sides by (x-2 )(x+2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[x/x-2 - x/x+2=1 \implies x(x+2)-x(x-2)=x^2-4\] \[x \neq2 or -2\] \[can be simplified \to x^2-4x-4=0\] using the quadratic formula \[x=2(1-\sqrt2) , x=2(1+\sqrt2)\]

above is the answer?

as wali said, I just multiplied by the (x-2)(x+2)
