Chapter 7: Problem 69

Perform the indicated operation or operations. $$\frac{x^{2}+x z+x y+y z}{x-y} \div \frac{x+z}{x+y}$$

Short Answer

Expert verified
The simplified form of the given expression is \(\frac{(x^{2}+x z+x y+y z)(x+y)}{(x-y)(x+z)}\).

Step by step solution

01

Express Division as Multiplication

The operation we're asked is a division of fractions. The division of fractions can be transformed into a multiplication operation by multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. So, the expression \(\frac{x^{2}+x z+x y+y z}{x-y} \div \frac{x+z}{x+y}\) is equivalent to \(\frac{x^{2}+x z+x y+y z}{x-y} \cdot \frac{x+y}{x+z}\)
02

Simplify the Resulting Expression

At this point, there is no further simplification that can be done. Multiplication and division have the same precedence, so, from left to right, we get the final form of the expression: \(\frac{(x^{2}+x z+x y+y z)(x+y)}{(x-y)(x+z)}\)

use the GRAPH or TABLE feature of a graphing utility to determine if the subtraction has been performed correctly. If the answer is wrong, correct it and then verify your correction using the graphing utility. $$\frac{x^{2}-13}{x+4}-\frac{3}{x+4}=x+4, x \neq-4$$
