You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Note that both the numerator and denominator expression will factor:
\n" ); document.write( "\"%2815x%5E2-x-2%29%2F%283x%5E2-5x-2%29\" = \"%285x-2%29%283x%2B1%29%2F%283x%2B1%29%28x-2%29\"
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Cancel the (3x+1)'s and you are left with:
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28%285x-2%29%29%2F%28%28x-2%29%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
