Which of the following is the product of the rational expression shown below

wolverine [178]

Option C: $\frac{x^{2}-9}{x^{2}-4}$ is the product of the rational expression.

Explanation:

The given rational expression is $\frac{x+3}{x+2} \cdot \frac{x-3}{x-2}$

We need to determine the product of the rational expression.

<u>Product of the rational expression:</u>

Let us multiply the rational expression to determine the product of the rational expression.

Thus, we have;

$\frac{(x+3)(x-3)}{(x+2)(x-2)}$

Let us use the identity $(a+b)(a-b)=a^2-b^2$ in the above expression.

Thus, we get;

$\frac{x^{2} -3^2}{x^{2} -2^2}$

Simplifying the terms, we get;

$\frac{x^{2}-9}{x^{2}-4}$

Thus, the product of the rational expression is $\frac{x^{2}-9}{x^{2}-4}$

Hence, Option C is the correct answer.

A truck can travel 80 miles in the same time that ot takes a car to travel 90 miles. If the truck’s rate is 5 miles per hour slo

SIZIF [17.4K]

The truck was going 40 miles per hour

The amount of time was 2 hours:
(90-80: 10)(10/2=5)

80 divided by two is 40

The car was going 45 miles per hour

(90-80:10)(10/2=5)

90 divided by two is 45
