Question

HELP!! Simplify.
2x + 5 / x^2 + 3x + 2 - x + 4/ x^2 + 3x + 2

Answer 1

They both have the same denominator
So just add the top terms, whilst keeping the bottom the same

Answer 2

7x+9/x2+4

Answer 3

(x+9)/x^2+3x+2

Answer 4

The answer in the back of my book is 1/x + 2

Answer 5

is the x+4 in brackets by any chance? it has to be
which would give

2x+5-x-4=x+1
(x+1)/(x^2+3x+2)

bottom factorised is (x+2)(x+1)
x+1 cancels
1/(x+2)

Answer 6

No its not in brackets :(
