Question 1186845: Have I answered the 2 product and quotient of each given expression below?
PROBLEM 1
X^2-Y^2/(X=Y)^2 times 2x+2y/3x -----------I come up with (x+y)(2x+2y)/3x(x-y)
PROBLEM 2
X^2+3X-28/X^2-16 Divided by x^2-1/x+4 ------- I come up with x+7/x^2-1
Thank you

(1) "Have I answered the 2 product and quotient of each given expression below?"

ANSWER: Yes, you have answered them.

But clearly the question you meant to ask was whether you had answered them CORRECTLY. The answer to that question is NO. (Close, but not quite....)

(2) Don't mix lower- and upper-case letters when showing algebraic expressions. "x" and "X" in the same problem can represent different numbers.

(3) Use parentheses where required. Neither of the expressions you show can be simplified much.

Here are the expressions you show (except I have corrected "(x=y)^2" to "(x-y)^2":

Problem 1:

times

Problem 2:

divided by

Those are obviously not the expressions you meant to show!

Note your lack of parentheses also makes the answers you show incorrect.



Now to look at the problems you INTENDED to post....

(1)





The only common factor between numerator and denominator is (x-y):

ANSWER:

So your answer on that one was right, except that the factor (2x+2y) should be factored further.

(2)







The (x+4) and (x-4) factors all cancel



ANSWER:

So your answer for that one was right.


Final summary:

Your algebra is mostly correct....

But take the time to make your post using correct language, and using parentheses where required.
