Question

Simplify

Answer 1

first factor the denominator and then find a common denominator

Answer 2

\[\frac{x-7}{2x-12}+\frac{6}{x^2-36} = \frac{x-7}{2(x-6)}+\frac{6}{(x-6)(x+6)}\]\]
\[\frac{(x-7)(x+6)}{2(x-6)(x+6)}+\frac{2*6}{2(x-6)(x+6)}\]

Answer 3

Follow me? You can now add the numerators and see if you can't work it down from there.

Answer 4

from what you said I got the answer : 6(x-7) / x-6

Answer 5

(x-7)(x+6)+12 numerator

x^2-x-30
x^2-6x+5x-30
x(x-6)+5(x-6)
(x+5)(x-6)

seems like you are wrong *-*. tell us how you got that

Answer 6

I added both things since they had the same denominator then I got rid of (x+6) since both the numerator and denominator had it so i had 12(x-7) / 2(x-6) I simplified the 2's getting 6(x-7)/ x-6

Answer 7

first, it's + 12, so you can't get rid of (x+6) and 2 like that, you will have to distribute (x-7)(x+6) + 12 and then factor again.

i already did these above if you wanna check
