Replace P(t) and N(t) in the fraction with their expressions, and write each radical as a fractional power. Then simplify.

If you don't get an answer, show us what you did so we can help. That's how this site works:

It would have been nice if the problem stated what x represented but you can still do the division.

It would have been nice if the problem stated what x represented but you can still do the division.

To put that another way, they presumably meant to use t in place of x in the expressions. How did I miss that?

It would help you to know that \(\displaystyle \sqrt[n]{x}= x^{1/n}\) and that \(\displaystyle \frac{x^a}{x^b}= x^{a-b}\).

Here, of course, my "x" is your "3x+ 2".
