    Step-by-step explanation:

    No, the student did not check the solution to the derived equation in the original equation.

    No, a possible solution is a = - 2, but it does not check in the original equation because it makes two of the denominators equal to zero.

    No, a = - 2 is an extraneous solution, and there is no solution to the original rational equation.
