x - \frac{2}{x} = 4

x = 2 + 6, x = 2 - 6

Decimal

x = 4.44948 \dots, x = - 0.44948 \dots

Solution steps

x - \frac{2}{x} = 4

Multiply both sides by

x

x^{2} - 2 = 4 x

Solve

x^{2} - 2 = 4 x : x = 2 + 6, x = 2 - 6

x = 2 + 6, x = 2 - 6

Verify Solutions

Find undefined (singularity) points:

x = 0

Combine undefined points with solutions:

x = 2 + 6, x = 2 - 6

4 - \frac{1}{t} - \frac{3}{t ^{2}} = 0

\frac{x ^{2} - 6 x}{3 x - 1} = \frac{3 x - 4}{1 - 3 x}

x - \frac{5}{x + 6} = 2 x

\frac{2 x - 5}{x - 4} = \frac{11}{x - 4}

\frac{1}{x} = \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{4}
