[tex]\frac{2}{x - 1} + \frac{8}{2x - 2} = 7[/tex]
[tex]\frac{2}{x - 1} + \frac{2(4)}{2(x) - 2(1)} = 7[/tex]
[tex]\frac{2}{x - 1} + \frac{2(4)}{2(x - 1)} = 7[/tex]
[tex]\frac{2}{x - 1} + \frac{4}{x - 1} = 7[/tex]
[tex]\frac{2 + 4}{x - 1} = 7[/tex]
[tex]\frac{6}{x - 1} = 7[/tex]
[tex]7(x - 1) = 6[/tex]
[tex]7(x) - 7(1) = 6[/tex]
[tex]7x - 7 = 6[/tex]
[tex]7x = 13[/tex]
[tex]\frac{7x}{7} = \frac{13}{7}[/tex]
[tex]x = 1\frac{6}{7}[/tex]
