1) (a/a-1 - 2a/a-2) / (2a/a-2) - (3a/a-3)
2) (a - 2/a-1) / (a+1/a-1 + a+1)
Your formatting is confusingly ambiguous. Did the one tutor guess your meaning correctly for the first exercise? Do you mean the following for the second one?
. . . . .\(\displaystyle \L \frac{\left(\frac{a\, -\, 2}{a\, -\, 1}\right)}{\left(\frac{a\, +\, 1}{a\, -\, 1}\, +\, (a\, +\, 1)\right)}\)
Note: This can also be written, in straight text, as:
. . . . .[(a - 2) / (a - 1)] / [(a + 1) / (a - 1) + (a + 1)]
Please reply with confirmation or correction. When you reply, please show what you have tried and how far you have gotten.
Thank you.
