1.
You're simply going to add each like term from both equations


Domain is all real numbers since the domain of the 2 equations is all real numbers.



2.
Now you're going to subtract like terms.


Domain is all real numbers since the domain of the 2 equations is all real numbers.


3.
Now you're going to multiply each equation



Rewrite terms in descending degree. Domain is all real numbers since the domain of the 2 equations is all real numbers.



4.
This time you're going to divide the 2 equations

And this is the simplest form since it cannot be reduced further. The domain is all real numbers except x cannot equal
