Sagot :

Answer:

[tex]\frac{x-22}{(x+2)(x-4)}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply the numerator/denominator of the first fraction by (x - 4)

multiply the numerator/denominator of the second fraction by (x + 2)

this ensures that the fractions have a common denominator

[tex]\frac{4}{x+2}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{3}{x-4}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{4(x-4)}{(x+2)(x-4)}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{3(x+2)}{(x+2)(x-4)}[/tex] ← subtract numerators leaving the common denominator

= [tex]\frac{4x-16-3x-6}{(x+2)(x-4)}[/tex]

=[tex]\frac{x-22}{(x+2)(x-4)}[/tex]
