Confusing math questions! :C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

find the LCM of the denominators \[\frac{ 2 }{ x }+\frac{ 2 }{ x+1 }-\frac{2 }{ x+2 }=\frac{ 2((x+1)(x+2)) +2(x(x+2))-2(x(x+1))}{ x((x+1)(x+2)) }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

once you do that simplify

OpenStudy (unbelievabledreams):

So the denominator will be x^3 + 3x^2 + 2x??

OpenStudy (unbelievabledreams):

But the numerator is so confusing.

OpenStudy (unbelievabledreams):

@rocketier97 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how is it confusing

OpenStudy (unbelievabledreams):

How do you simplify? 2(x+1) (x+2) Is it 2x^2 + 4 o_O

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no its \[2x^2+6x+4\]

OpenStudy (unbelievabledreams):

Can you show me how? I am terrible at math and I wanted to understand.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

coming....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[2(x(x+2)+1(x+2))\]

OpenStudy (unbelievabledreams):

Okay, I see that.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay so can you do the rest

OpenStudy (unbelievabledreams):

Yes, thank you.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no problem
