Take Free Practice Test On 2026 JAMB UTME, Post UTME, WAEC SSCE, GCE, NECO SSCE
  • A \(\frac{x + 1}{x(1 - x)}\)
  • B \(\frac{3x - 1}{ x(1 - x)}\)
  • C \(\frac{3x + 1}{ x(1 - x)}\)
  • D \(\frac{x + 1}{ x(1 - x)}\)
Correct Answer: Option B
Explanation:
\(\frac{2}{1 - x} - \frac{1}{x}\) = \(\frac{2x - 1(1 - x)}{x(1 - x)}\)
= \(\frac{2x - 1(1 + x)}{x(1 - x)}\)
= \(\frac{3x - 1}{x(1 - x)}\)
