Find the least common denominator for these two rational expressions. x²/x²+2x+1 and 5/x²+4x+3

1 answer:

5 0

Factor each denominator:

x^2 + 2x + 1 = (x+1)^2

x^2 + 4x + 3 = (x+3)(x+1)

Now take the common and non common factors with the highest exponents and multiply them.

(x+3).(x+1)^2 is the least common denominator.

If you expand that product you will get x^3 + 5x^2 + 7x +3

Which is the simplified rational expression for r2-4r+5/r-4

Sliva [168]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{ {r}^{2} - 4r + 5}{r - 4} - \frac{ {r}^{2} + 2r - 8}{r - 4} \\ = \frac{ ({r}^{2} - 4r + 5) - ( {r}^{2} + 2r - 8) }{r + 4} \\ = \frac{ {r}^{2} - {r}^{2} - 4r - 2r + 5 - 8 }{r - 4} \\ = \frac{ - 6r - 3}{r - 4}$
