y^2+y-6 over y^2-4 simplify ? please with the restriction

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y^2+y-6 can be factored out to (y+3)(y-2) and y^2-4 can be factored out to (y-2)(y+2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y+3 over y+2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

factor top and bottom: (y + 3)(y - 2) ---------- = (y+3)/(y+2) (y+2)(y-2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is the restriction -2 or |dw:1335304650705:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, it is -2 because when dividing the deliminator can never =0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank youu

OpenStudy (anonymous):

restriction is y not = -2 nor 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

*denominator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and yes, forgot the whole equation since the denominator is (x+2)(x-2) joeywhite is right, both

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the restriction is |dw:1335304887550:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup

OpenStudy (anonymous):
