Step-by-step explanation:
The related function is reflected across the x-axis and translated up 3 units. Effectively, it is reflected across the line y = 3/2. The graph of the related function is shown in blue in the attachment.
You have the right idea that things need to get multiplied.
What should be done is that the entire fraction needs to get multipled by the lowest common denominator of both denominators.
Let's look at the complex numerator. Its denominators are 5 and x + 6. Nothing is common with these, so both pieces are needed.
The complex denominator has x - 3 as its denominator. With nothing in common between it and the complex numerator, that piece is needed.
So we multiply the entire complex fraction by (5)(x + 6)(x -3).
Numerator:
= (x+6)(x-3) - (5)(5)(x-3)
= (x+6)(x-3) - 25(x-3)
= (x-3)(x + 6 - 25) <--- by group factoring the common x - 3
= (x -3)(x - 19)
Denominator:
Now we put the pieces together.
Our fraction simplies to (x - 3) (x - 19) / 125 (x + 6)
