can someone check my answer?
what is the simplified form of 12z^2+25z+12 over 3z^2-2z-8?
i chose
4z + 3 over z+2
the other answer options were
4z - 3 over z + 2
4z + 3 over z - 2
4z - 3 over z - 2

yes you are right
OpenStudy (campbell_st):
you may want to to check the denominator factorization...
OpenStudy (campbell_st):
as I think your solution is incorrect
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i looked over it again and got 4z - 3 over z + 2
OpenStudy (campbell_st):
ok... so what was the common factor you removed...?

well now I think your denominator and numerator are incorrect
OpenStudy (campbell_st):
here is the correct factorization
\[\frac{(4z +3)(3z + 4)}{(z -2)(3z +4)}\]
what are yyou left with after removing the common factor
OpenStudy (anonymous):
4z + 3 over z - 2
