You can put this solution on YOUR website!
if you started with:
\n" ); document.write( "(-2x-8)/(x^2+2x-8)
\n" ); document.write( "start by factoring both numerator and denominator:
\n" ); document.write( "-2(x+4)/[(x+4)(x-2)]
\n" ); document.write( "now cancel terms:
\n" ); document.write( "-2/(x-2)
\n" ); document.write( "now, you could move the negative sign to the denominator leaving:
\n" ); document.write( "2/(2-x)\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
