You asked:

Simplify the expression: x2−4x2+2x\frac{{x}^{2} - 4}{{x}^{2} + 2 x}

MathBot Answer:

Simplified:

x2−4x2+2x=x−2x \frac{{x}^{2} - 4}{{x}^{2} + 2 x} = \frac{x - 2}{x}

Expanded:

x2−4x2+2x=x2x2+2x−4x2+2x \frac{{x}^{2} - 4}{{x}^{2} + 2 x} = \frac{x^{2}}{x^{2} + 2 x} - \frac{4}{x^{2} + 2 x}

Factored:

x2−4x2+2x=x−2x \frac{{x}^{2} - 4}{{x}^{2} + 2 x} = \frac{x - 2}{x}
