Question 884648: Good afternoon,
I was wondering if someone could help me solve this equation. I tried to solve it, but I feel that I am not correct. Can someone help me. thank you in advance.
The equation is (x+2/x-3)/(x-2/x-3). The answer I received was -6x+9 like I stated before I feel like am off the charts wrong. So please get back to me when you can. Once again thank you.

Equations have equal signs. Do you see an equal sign?

This is NOT an equation (no EQUALS sign), but an expression that can only be SIMPLIFIED, not solved.

If it's: %28x+%2B+2%29%2F%28x+-+3%29 ÷ %28x+-+2%29%2F%28x+-+3%29, then we get: 

%28%28x+%2B+2%29%2F%28x+-+3%29%29+%2A+%28%28x+-+3%29%2F%28x+-+2%29%29 ------ Changing DIVISION to MULTIPLICATION and inverting the DIVISOR

%28%28x+%2B+2%29%2Fcross%28x+-+3%29%29+%2A+%28cross%28x+-+3%29%2F%28x+-+2%29%29_____highlight_green%28highlight_green%28%28x+%2B+2%29%2F%28x+-+2%29%29%29

You can do the check!!
