An equation is formed of two equal expressions. Janes should multiply both sides of the equation by (y²-1).
An equation is formed when two equal expressions are equated together with the help of an equal sign '='.
The equation that is given is an equation with a mixed fraction, therefore, the denominator with the highest power should be multiplied on both sides of the equation. The equation that is given to us
[tex]y + \dfrac{y^2-5}{y^2-1} = \dfrac{y^2+y+2}{y+1}[/tex]
As we can see in the equation that there are 2 denominators, which are,
In the two of the expressions that are stated above the expression (y²-1) is of a higher power.
Hence, Janes should multiply both sides of the equation by (y²-1).
