Question

Which of the following is equal to the rational expression when x*-2 or-6?
3(x+2)/(x+6)(x+2)

Answer 1

`(3)/(x+6)\\`

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct parameters are:

`x \\e 2\\x \\e -6`

Required

Which is equal to:

`(3(x+2))/((x+6)(x+2))`

To do this, we need to simplify the given expression.

`(3(x+2))/((x+6)(x+2))`

Cancel out x + 2

`(3(x+2))/((x+6)(x+2)) = (3)/(x+6)`

Hence, the equivalent expression is:

`(3)/(x+6)\\`
