Read each question carefully and solve for the variable. Show all your work.
1. Solve for x: (x/3) + (x/2) = 5
2. Solve for x: (x+1)/4 - (x-2)/3 = 1
3. To eliminate fractions in an equation, multiply every term by the of all the denominators.
4. When solving (3/(x-2)) = (5/(x+4)), the first step is to both sides.
5. The equation 1/x = 0 has a solution of x = 1.

a
x = 3
b
x = -3
c
x = 6
d
No extraneous solution
7. Solve for y: (2y)/(y-1) + (1)/(y+1) = 2
