OpenStudy (texaschic101):

(x^2 + 3) / (x + 6)....when x = -9 now we sub (-9^2 + 3) / (-9 + 6) (81 + 3) / -3 84/-3 - 28

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-28 you sure? o.O

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

unless the problem is : x^2 + (3/x) + 6 ??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's the way I typed it.

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

with no parenthesis, the problem can be confusing. Do you have answer choices ?
