Divide.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the x^2 + 2x + 1 is thw square of (x + 1)^2 as per the previous questions you can solve it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The first part would be (x -2) 2x? + 1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@theredhead1617 do you know how to solve the problem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ \frac{ (x+1)(x+1) }{ x-2 } }{ \frac{ (x-1)(x+1) }{ (x-2)(x+2) } }\] \[\frac{ (x+1)(x+1) }{ (x-2) } \div { \frac{ (x-1)(x+1) }{ (x-2)(x+2) } }\\] \frac{ (x+1)(x+1) }{ (x-2) } \times { \frac{ (x-2)(x+2) }{ (x-1)(x+1) } }\\]\] can you solv further?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No @miteshchvm I dont understand how to. I wish to know where to begin but i do not

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you factorise x^2 + 2x + 1?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x^2 + 2x + 1 = (x + 1)^2 = (x+1)(x+1) x^2 - 1 = (x +1)(x - 1) x^2 - 4 = (x-2)(x+2) you get it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(x + 1) to second power?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[x^2 + 2x + 1 = (x + 1)^2 = (x+1)(x+1) \] \[x^2 - 1 = (x +1)(x - 1) \] \[x^2 - 4 = (x-2)(x+2)\] you get it? i wrote this instead of your question in order to simplify,

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just a little bit, its hard

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now refer to my first comment

OpenStudy (anonymous):

on the previous question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

your question can be written as\[{ \frac{ (x^2 + 2x + 1) }{ x-2 } } \div { \frac{ x^2 - 1 }{ x^2 - 4 } } \] now \[\frac{ (x+1)(x+1) }{ (x-2) } \div { \frac{ (x-1)(x+1) }{ (x-2)(x+2) } }\\] \] \[\frac{ (x+1)(x+1) }{ (x-2) } \times { \frac{ (x-2)(x+2) }{ (x-1)(x+1) } }\\] \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you get it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im getting a better understand of it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

C:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

D:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

on eliminating values you get \[\frac{ (x+1)(x+2) }{ (x-1) }\]

thanks for everything @miteshchvm
