Question

Divide (x^2 + 2x - 3)/(x - 1)

Answer 1

Answer:

(x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

(x^2 + 2x - 3) = x^2 + 3x - x -3

                     = x(x + 3) - 1(x + 3)

                     = (x - 1)(x + 3)

(x^2 + 2x - 3)/(x - 1) = (x - 1)(x + 3)/(x - 1)

                               = x + 3
