Perform the indicated operation. Simplify if possible.

(8x^2/x-1) + (-8x/x-1)

I factored and then canceled to get...

8x(x-1)/x-1
=8x

I am stuck once again...not sure if this is correct. Thanks ahead of time.

$$\frac{8x^2}{x-1}+\frac{-8x}{x-1}$$??

anonymous · Answer

$$\frac{8x^2-8x}{x-1}=\frac{8x(x-1)}{x-1}$$ yeah looks like you are right, it is $8x$
