Question 574046: Please help me solve this function?
f(x)=((x^2+4x-7)-5)/(x - 2) I understand everything until I get to the point where we simplify and we have f(x)=((x^2+4x-12)/(x - 2)=x+6 When I do it I end up with x+8.
I cancelled out an x in x^2 and x and a 2 in 4x and a 2 in 12. I don't understand how to get to x+6. I would truly appreciate your assistance.
