Question

Simplify x^2-6x+9/x^2-9

Answer 1

\[\frac{x^2 - 6x+9}{x^2 - 9} \implies \frac{(x-3)^2}{(x+3)(x-3)}\]
does that help?

Answer 3

Answer 5

look at my explanation it will make more sense

Answer 6

\[\frac{(x-3)^2}{(x+3)(x-3)} \implies \frac{(x-3)(x-3)}{(x+3)(x-3)}\]

do you see it now?

Answer 7

so \[x-6/x-3\]

Answer 8

Answer 9

stop guessing...you're not gonna make me say yes to the right answer lol...just observe...and think of cancellation

Answer 10

sorry this test is starting to get to me. been taking it for 5 hours. but it'd be \[x-3/x+3\] I'm so tired i didn't even see you could easily cancel it out...
