We have to rationalize the denominator:
\frac{-2}{ \sqrt{x+y-2} - \sqrt{x+y+2} } = \\  \frac{-2}{ \sqrt{x+y-2} -  \sqrt{x+y+2} }* \frac{ \sqrt{x+y-2}+ \sqrt{x+y+2}  }{ \sqrt{x+y-2}+ \sqrt{x+y+2}  }= \\  \frac{-2*( \sqrt{x+y-2}+ \sqrt{x+y+2})  }{x+y-2-(x+y+2)}= \\  \frac{-2*( \sqrt{x+y-2}+ \sqrt{x+y+2})  }{x+y-2-x-y-2}= \\  \frac{-2*( \sqrt{x+y-2}+ \sqrt{x+y+2}  }{-4}= \\  \frac{ \sqrt{x+y-2}+ \sqrt{x+y+2}  }{2}

Answer:

\frac{\sqrt{x+y-2}+\sqrt{x+y+2}}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression :

\frac{-2}{\sqrt{x+y-2}-\sqrt{x+y+2}}

Now, we solve this expression by rationalizing method


\frac{-2}{\sqrt{x+y-2}-\sqrt{x+y+2}}\times\frac{\sqrt{x+y-2}+\sqrt{x+y+2}}{\sqrt{x+y-2}+\sqrt{x+y+2}}  


\frac{-2(\sqrt{x+y-2}+\sqrt{x+y+2})}{x+y-2-x-y-2}  

(using  (a+b)(a-b)=a^2-b^2)


\frac{-2(\sqrt{x+y-2}+\sqrt{x+y+2})}{-4}


\frac{\sqrt{x+y-2}+\sqrt{x+y+2}}{2}

this is the required arrangement which result the expression by rationalizing

Answer: Experimental Probability

Step-by-step explanation:

Theoretical Probability is the theory behind probability. Experimental (empirical) probability is probability calculated during experiments, direct observation, experience, or practice. The empirical probability, relative frequency, or experimental probability of an event is the ratio of the number of outcomes in which a specified event occurs to the total number of trials, not in a theoretical sample space but in an actual experiment.
