I am taking Math 262 after being out of math for a really long time. I might be hanging myself by doing this but I tested into the course just barely. For these reasons I plan to work extra hard this semester. I used this forum a long time ago and it was extremely useful for checking myself and so I know it will benefit me greatly this semester. Thanks in advance for any help!
Here is the problem:
Factor [ 3(x+2)^2 - 6(x+2)^3 ] / [ 2(x+2)^4 ]
Here is what I got:
[ 3(x+2)^2 (-2x-4) ] / [ 2(x+2)^4 ]
I am wondering if I should cancel or multiply out as part of "factoring" since all terms are separated by a multiply? Or leave my answer as it is above?
