Answer:


(y(y+2))/(y+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the expression
\frac{y^(2)} {y-3} *\frac{{y^(2)-y-6}} {y^2+y}

We will factorise the expression


y^2-y-6=(y+2)(y-3) substituting this value in the given expression we will get


(y^2)/(y-3)* ((y+2)(y-3))/(y(y+1))

we can rewrite it as


(y^2(y+2)(y-3))/(y(y-3)(y+1))

Cancel out the common factor which is y and (y-3) we wil get


(y(y+2))/(y+1)

Therefore,
(y(y+2))/(y+1)
