(x+5)^2/(x^2+2x-15)+2/(4x-12)
\n" ); document.write( "factor denominator of first term and denominator of second term
\n" ); document.write( "(x+5)^2/(x+5)(x-3)+2/4(x-3)
\n" ); document.write( "(x+5)/(x-3)+1/2(x-3)
\n" ); document.write( "LCD or LCM =2(x-3)
\n" ); document.write( "multiplying each term by the LCD, combining like terms for the numerator, and placing the LCD in the denominator
\n" ); document.write( "(2(x+5)+1)/2(x-3)
\n" ); document.write( "2x+10+1/2(x-3)
\n" ); document.write( "ans: 2x+11/2(x-3) or (2x+11)/(2x-6)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
