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

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

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

OpenStudy (anonymous):

none of the answers is the one you gave me though

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

of course not. i didn't give the final answer

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

look for something you can cancel from the last thing i wrote

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it x-3/x-6 6

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):

where do you see a 6 in what i wrote?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its x-3/x+3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (lgbasallote):
