@amistre64 Hey, man! I am on this one test and I'm trying to get done with it, could you help me on this problem?

OpenStudy (kirbykirby):

\[ \frac{2x^2-6x}{x^2+18x+81}\div\frac{x^2-9}{x^2-81}\\ =\frac{2x^2-6x}{x^2+18x+81}\times\frac{x^2-81}{x^2-9}\\ =\frac{2x(x-3)}{(x+9)^2}\times\frac{(x+9)(x-9)}{(x+3)(x-3)}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Which answer is that going to turn out to be?

OpenStudy (kirbykirby):

cancel out what is common in the numerator and denominator.. Notice that: \[ \frac{2x(x-3)}{(x+9)^2}\times\frac{(x+9)(x-9)}{(x+3)(x-3)}=\frac{2x(x-3)(x+9)(x-9)}{(x+9)(x+9)(x+3)(x-3)}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ahhhh... Let me go try to simplify that and I'll brb

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got C, @kirbykirby ... Thank you so much for your help!

OpenStudy (kirbykirby):

OpenStudy (amistre64):
