x^2+12x+32/6x+42 / x^2+4x/x^2-49 dividing expressions.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did you solve it is this what you got?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

according to the textbook, you have the correct answer. i, on the other hand, got something completely different--and wrong ://

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you show me how you solved this problem, saljudieh07, or have you gone somewhere else?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

don't leave.... aaaahhh! :O

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok dont worri am here

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yay:D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you change it to this: \[{[(x^2+12x+32)/(6x+42)]} * {[(x^2-49)/(x^2+4x)]}\] now simplify x^2+12x+32 into (x+4) (x+8) and simplify x^2-49 into (x-7)(x+7) and simplify x^2+4x into x(x+4) and simplify 6x+42 into 6(x+7) plug those back into your expression and cancel out some terms, you will get the right answer!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ooooh... makes sense. thanks:)
