denominator remains the same
simplify numerator and tell me what you got .

Answer 7

6/(y+5) + 3/)y-2)
[6(y-2) + 3(y+5)]/(y+5)(y-2)
(6y-12+3y+15)/(y+5)(y-2)
(9y + 3)/(y+5)(y-2)
3(y+1)/(y+5)(y-2)

Answer 8

So is the answer 9y+3/ (y+5)(y-2) ? @gw2011

Answer 9

Yes, but 9y+3 can be simplified to 3(3y+1). Sorry, but I mistyped 9y+3=3(y+1). It should be 3(3y+1).
