The common denominator in given fractions is given by:
[tex]x+2[/tex]
Given that:
- To find the common denominator of [tex]\dfrac{5}{x^2 - 4} - \dfrac{2}{x+2}[/tex]
Writing the denominator of first term in factored form:
[tex]x^2 - 4 = (x-2)(x+2)[/tex]
Thus, we have the expression as:
[tex]\dfrac{5}{(x-2)(x+2)} - \dfrac{2}{x+2}[/tex]
It is visible that the common factor in both fractions' denominators is:
[tex](x+2)[/tex]
Thus, the common denominator in given fractions is given by:
[tex]x+2[/tex]
