Question #N791
What is the solution to the equation $\frac{x-3}{x+2} = 1$ ?
A. 1
B. 2
C. 5
D. No solution
Correct Answer is: D
Multiplying both sides of the equation by $x+2$ gives $x-3 = x+2$. Subtracting $x$ from both sides gives $-3 = 2$. This equation is false, so there is no solution to the original equation. The original equation is undefined when $x=-2$.
