      Question

      If  {1/(y + 1) + 1/(y + 5)} = {1/(y + 2) + 1/(y + 4)}.

      Find the value of y 
      A -3 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 3 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D -1 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      We are solving:

      Combine the fractions on both sides. Cancel common terms (2y+6) to get:

      This simplifies to 5=8, which is a contradiction unless 2y+6=0. Solve 2y+6=0: Hence y = -3
