Question

This problem asks me to subtract and simplify if possible


4-v/v-9 - 2v-5/9-v

I came up with v-1/v-9

Is this correct?

Answer 1

Please insert parentheses where required to clarify the problem.

I have no idea if <2v-5/9-v>
is supposed to mean
(2v-5)/(9-v)
or
2(v-5)/9 -v
or
2v -(5/9) -v
or
2v - 5/(9-v)

or various other possibilities.
