Nice solution! Thanks!
Third line a=0 is the solution. But a=2 * x * x - 1.
So x=0.707107.

Wow! You are right. I will change the solution.
L e t a = 2 x 2 , a n d b = x 2 − 6 x + 1 0 . T h e n g i v e n e q u a t i o n i s : − a + 1 / ( a + b − 1 ) = 1 / b + 1 . S e e e a s i l y a = 1 i s t h e s o l u t i o n . ⟹ 2 x 2 = 1 , f o r x > 0 , x = 2 / 2 = 0 . 7 0 7 1 .
If you try to compare L.H.S and R.H.S, we simply see that x = 2 1
First set 2 x 2 = 1 , which which will give you x = 2 1 (not a negative result because it's not allowed) and then set 3 x 2 − 6 x + 9 1 = x 2 − 6 x + 1 0 1 , which again gives you x = 2 1 ≈ 0 . 7 0 7 1 , hence it satisfies!
Although It's not a solution...

2 x 2 + 3 x 2 − 6 x + 9 1 2 x 2 − 1 + 2 x 2 − 1 + x 2 − 6 x + 1 0 1 ⟹ a + a + b 1 ⟹ a 2 x 2 − 1 ⟹ x = x 2 − 6 x + 1 0 1 + 1 = x 2 − 6 x + 1 0 1 = b 1 = 0 = 0 = 2 1 ≈ 0 . 7 0 7 1 Let a = 2 x 2 − 1 and b = x 2 − 6 x + 1 0 Since x > 0
