Find the LCD for the given rational expressions, and convert each rational expression into an equivalent rational expression with the LCD as the denominator.
__4__ ____X__
x -y` 2y – 2x
---------------------------
Factor where possible:
4/(x-y) , -x/[2(x-y)]
-------------------------
Determine LCD:

LCD: 2(x-y)
-----------------------
Rewrite with LCD:
8/LCD , -x/LCD
