Question

$$\frac{8a(x+1)}{2(x^{2}-1)}$$

Evaluate

$\frac{4a}{x-1}$
$|x|\neq 1$

Short Solution Steps

Cancel out $2$ in both numerator and denominator.

$$\frac{4a\left(x+1\right)}{x^{2}-1}$$

Factor the expressions that are not already factored.

$$\frac{4a\left(x+1\right)}{\left(x-1\right)\left(x+1\right)}$$

Cancel out $x+1$ in both numerator and denominator.

$$\frac{4a}{x-1}$$

Expand

$\frac{4a}{x-1}$
$|x|\neq 1$

Short Solution Steps

Cancel out $2$ in both numerator and denominator.

$$\frac{4a\left(x+1\right)}{x^{2}-1}$$

Factor the expressions that are not already factored.

$$\frac{4a\left(x+1\right)}{\left(x-1\right)\left(x+1\right)}$$

Cancel out $x+1$ in both numerator and denominator.

$$\frac{4a}{x-1}$$
