Help can whoever answer explain how they got the answer the steps please

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you factor x out of x^2 + 2x which will get you 1/x(x+2)

Next, you find the LCD of the terms in the equation and you get x(x+2)

Then, you multiply each term by x(x+2) and you simplify giving you x^2+x-1=x^2+2x

Finally you combine like terms giving you x = -1
