    Both expression have the same denominator: 9x²-1. Thus it must not be 0.

    9x²-1 = (3x-1) (3x+1) = 0, resulting x=+-1/3.

    Restrictions: x in R/{-1/3, 1/3}

    Adding those expressions:

    E = (-x-2) / (9x²-1) + (-5x+4) / (9x²-1) =

    (-x-2-5x+4) / (9x²-1) = (-6x+2) / (9x²-1) =

    (-2) (3x-1) / (9x²-1) = -2 / (3x+1)

    E=-2 / (3x+1)
