Transcript text: Perform the indicated operation for the expression. List ALL restrictions.
$\frac{4}{x^{2}+x-6}+\frac{3 x}{x-2}-\frac{2}{x+3}=\frac{3 x^{3}+16 x^{2}+35 x-4}{(x-2)(x+3)} \times$
Restrictions: $x \neq 2,-3 \vee 0^{\infty}$
Solution
Solution Steps
To solve the given problem, we need to perform the indicated operations on the rational expressions and identify any restrictions on the variable \( x \). The restrictions are values of \( x \) that make any denominator zero.
Solution Approach
Identify the denominators in the given rational expressions.
Determine the values of \( x \) that make any of the denominators zero.
List these values as restrictions.
Step 1: Identify the Denominators
The given rational expressions are:
\[
\frac{4}{x^{2}+x-6} + \frac{3x}{x-2} - \frac{2}{x+3}
\]
The denominators are:
\( x^{2} + x - 6 \)
\( x - 2 \)
\( x + 3 \)
Step 2: Find Restrictions
To find the restrictions on \( x \), we need to determine the values that make each denominator equal to zero.
For \( x^{2} + x - 6 = 0 \):
\[
(x - 2)(x + 3) = 0 \implies x = 2 \text{ or } x = -3
\]
For \( x - 2 = 0 \):
\[
x = 2
\]
For \( x + 3 = 0 \):
\[
x = -3
\]
Step 3: List All Restrictions
The values that make any denominator zero are \( x = 2 \) and \( x = -3 \). Therefore, the restrictions on \( x \) are:
\[
x \neq 2, -3
\]
Final Answer
The restrictions for the given rational expressions are:
\[
\boxed{x \neq 2, -3}
\]
