Answer: x = -2

Explanation:

To solve for x- we will isolate the given variable.

Given:

$\displaystyle 1 = (2x)/(x-2)$

Multiply both sides of the equation by (x - 2):

x - 2 = 2x

Subtract 2x from both sides of the equation:

-x - 2 = 0

Add 2 to both sides of the equation:

-x = 2

Divide both sides of the equation by -1:

x = -2
