I'm assuming this is 9/(6x^2-7x), otherwise I would make the first part 3/2, which probably would have been done.
Everywhere there is an x, put in (x+2)
9/(6(x+2)^2-7(x+2))
The denominator is 6(x^2+4x+4-7x-14) or 6(x^2-3x-10)
h(x)=9/(6x^2-18x-60) or 3/(2x^2-9x-30), the parentheses matter.
3/2x^2-9x-60 is not wrong but ambiguous.
I don't know if the original function was 9/6x^2-7x, which can be 3/2x^2-7x or 9/(6x^2-7x), which cannot be reduced.
