Question

Simplify by removing factors of 1.
(v^2-16)/(4-v). The answer I got is -v-4 but that doesn't look right...

Answer 1

(v+4)(v-4)/-(v-4)=-(V+4)

Answer 2

yes, or equivalently -(v+4)

Answer 3

So is the right answer "technically" -(v+4) rather than the answer I got?

Answer 4

same thing. be happy with your answer

Answer 5

okay, gotcha! Thanks!!!!!!

Answer 6

I only noted -(v+4) in case you are doing multiple choice, and you do not see your answer.

Answer 7

no, no multiple choice.
