Question

-x - y + (x^2 + y^2)/(x-y) simplify

Answer 1

try clearing the fraction by multiplying everything by (x-y)

Answer 2

-x - y + ((x^2 + y^2)/(x-y) )
I rewrite is this righ?

Answer 3

(2y^2)/x-y

Answer 4

yes it is nancy

Answer 5

end up with
(-x^2-y)-(x-y^2)+(x^2+y^2)

Answer 6

LCD: x-y

Answer 7

(-x-y)+(x^2+y^2)/(x-y)
=[(-x-y)(x-y)/(x-y)]+[(x^2+y^2)/(x-y)]

Answer 8

Maph wouldn't the point of using the LCD be to clear the fraction?

Answer 9

time:(x-y)(-x - y)=-x^2 -xy +xy +y^2 simplyfy
= -x^2 + y^2
(-x^2+y^2+x^2+y^2)/(x-y) simplyfy
(2y^2)/(x-y)
