simplify ((x^2-4x-12))/((x+2))

simplify

\frac{( x ^{2} - 4 x - 12 )}{( x + 2 )}

x - 6

Solution steps

\frac{x ^{2} - 4 x - 12}{x + 2}

Factor

x^{2} - 4 x - 12 : (x + 2) (x - 6)

= \frac{( x + 2 ) ( x - 6 )}{x + 2}

Cancel the common factor:

x + 2

= x - 6

(x - y)^{2}

\frac{a}{2 a}

2 - (\frac{4}{3})^{2}

\frac{2 x ^{2} + x - 3}{x ^{2} - 3 x + 2}

(- 1 + i) \cdot (2 + 3 i)
