Simplify. x-2/(x^2+4x-12)

1 answer:

5 0

Simplifying the above expression we shall proceed as follows:
x-2/(x^2+4x-12)
factoring out the denominator we get:
x^2+4x-12
=x^2-2x+6x-12
=x(x-2)+6(x-2)
=(x+6)(x-2)
thus our expression will be:
(x-2)/[(x+6)(x-2)]
simplifying the above we get:
1/(x+6)

Answer: 1/(x+6)

$x^3+8x^2+2x+1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Combine like terms (terms with the same exponent).

$x^3+(3x^2+5x^2)+(x+x)+1=x^3+8x^2+2x+1$

"Standard form" means to list terms so the exponents go from high to low (descending order).
