For all r is not equal to plus or minus 2, (r squared - 5r + 6) over (r squared - 4 = ?
What does it mean "for all r is not equal to plus or minus 2"?
----------------------
Problem:
(r^2-5r+6)/(r^2-4)
----
Factor this rational expression:
[(r-3)(r-2)]/[(r-2)(r+2)]
===================================
What does it mean "for all r is not equal to plus or minus 2"?
Ans: Since the denominator would be zero if r = 2 or if r = -2,
those values of r are not allowed.
