Question

can someone please help me answer this question below?

Answer 1

factor out the denominators to see what you have to work with

Answer 2

when i factor the left denominator i get 2(x-6). What do i do next?

Answer 3

(x-7)/2(x-6) + 6/(x+6)(x-6)
Now create a common denominator.

Answer 4

That is multiply the left by (x+6)/(x+6) and multiply the right by 2/2.
See if that helps.

i got (x+5)/2(x-6)
