can someone walk me through this step by step

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\large \cfrac{7x^2+11x-6}{7x^2-10x+3}\]

OpenStudy (jadedry):

What do you want to find? Do have to find x? (does the equation = 0?) Are you supposed to simplify?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

simplify

OpenStudy (jadedry):

Alright. So, the numerator and denominator are both quadratic equations \[7x^2 +11x - 6 = (7x - 3)(x+2)\] \[7x^2 -10x +3 = (7x - 3)(x -1)\] Therefore, simplified, the equation = \[\frac{ x+2 }{ x-1 }\] It cannot be further simplified. If you want to check your answer you could substitute the value of x for an integer.
