What is the numerator and what is the denominator of this equation. There is too much ambiguity in your original written question: (3x-6) / (x+5) or (3x-6)/(x) + 5 or 3x - (6)/(x+5) or 3x - (6/x) +5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

numerator: 3x-6 denominator: x+5

Reduce[D[(3 x - 6)/(x + 5), {x, 2}] > 0, x]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x < -5

pretty easy to see if you look at a plot

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you put this in interval notation
