Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x^2 --2x--2 -- 9/x--2
When adding/subtracting fractions you need a common denominator, but you already have one, which is x-3. So in general:
a/c-b/c=(a-b)/c so you just have:
(2x-6)/(x-3) now if you factor 2 from the numerator
2(x-3)/(x-3) the (x-3)s cancel out leaving
2
However! Note that division by zero is undefined, so x cannot equal 3. (because both original fractions had denominators of x-3)
What this all means is that that expression will equal 2 for all real values of x other than 3.
3(x+2)
Remember in expressions there’s no equals sign
Hope this helps!!
