Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related ALG2.127 Solving Rational Equations skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

Solve for x: (x squared - 36) over (x - 6) = (x squared - 25) over (x + 5).

Solution & Explanation:Restrictions: x ≠ 6 and x ≠ -5. Factor: x squared - 36 = (x - 6)(x + 6), so the left side simplifies to x + 6 for x ≠ 6. Similarly, the right side simplifies to x - 5 for x ≠ -5. Then the equation becomes x + 6 = x - 5, which is false because 6 ≠ -5. Cross-multiplying would produce x = 6 or x = -5, but both are extraneous (they make a denominator 0). So there is no solution.

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

Be careful: simplifying can remove a factor that also creates an extraneous value. Solve for x: 2 over (x - 5) - 3 over (x - 6) = 1 over ((x - 5)(x - 6)).

Solution & Explanation:Restrictions: x ≠ 5 and x ≠ 6. Multiply both sides by (x - 5)(x - 6): 2(x - 6) - 3(x - 5) = 1. Solve the linear equation to get x = 2, then confirm it does not make a denominator 0.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

Solve the rational equation and verify every candidate in the original equation. Solve for x: (1 over x) over (1 over x - 1 over (x + 1)) = 3.

Solution & Explanation:Restrictions: x ≠ 0 and x ≠ -1. Combine the denominator: 1 over x - 1 over (x + 1) = 1 over (x(x + 1)). Then (1 over x) over (1 over (x(x + 1))) simplifies to x + 1. So solve x + 1 = 3 to get x = 2, then check the restrictions.
