What is this simplified this is algebra 2

8 + 2x
————
x^2 - 4

Explanation:
Factor
Factor out the negative sign
Using a^2 - b = (a - b)(a + b), factor the expression
Factor out the negative sign from the expression and reorder the terms

Determine the sign of the fraction

Write all numerators above the least common denominator (x - 2)x(x + 2)

Distribute 2 through the parentheses
Using (a - b)(a + b) = a^2 - b^2

Add the numbers

And done.

step-by-step explanation:

when the line is solid:

it's either < or >

when the line is dashed:

it's either < or >

this > inequality sign means:

greater thanmore thanaboveexceeds

this < inequality sign means:

less thanfewer thanbelow

this > inequality sign means:

greater than/equal tono less thanat leastminimum of

this < inequality sign means:

less than/equal tono more thanat mostmaximum of

about the problem:

since the line is solid, that means it's either < or >

srry i'm not done ! i'll
