how will be ?

Answer 11

(x-2)(x+2)

Answer 12

exactly

Answer 13

so in denominator there is 2x-4

what can you factorizing out ?

Answer 14

2(x-2)

Answer 15

yes

than now try rewriting your exercise using this facvtorized form of them

ok ?

Answer 16

so I would eliminate (x-2) because it is in both and I would be left with (x+2) as the answer?

Answer 17

so i dont know ,try rewriting these calculi here ,please

Answer 18

(x-2)(x+2)/2(x-2)

Answer 19

yes and what is the simplified form of ?

Answer 20

(x+2)/2

Answer 21

nice


exactly


hope was easy sure ,yes ?

Answer 22

yes, it was easy. Thank you.

Answer 23

yw

my pleasure


good luck
