Question

Help Please! Reduce rational expression,

x to the 2 power-5x+6 x-4
_________________________ . ________________
x to the 2 power-4x x-3

Thank you.

Answer 1

Try the same approach I helped with earlier. x^2 - 4x can be simplified.

So, can x^2-5x+6 be by factoring.

Then, a simple matter of canceling out common terms.

Answer 2

i got x+5 over x-2 ? sorry, i'm having a hard time with this.....

Answer 3

x^2 - 4x = x(x-4)
x^2 - 5x + 6 = (x-3)(x-2)

(x-3)(x-2)(x-4)/x(x-4)(x-3) = x-2/x
