3 answers

We can start by simplifying the original expression:


+
2


x+2−xx

= � + 2 - x - 2x

= -x - 2x + 2

= -3x + 2

Now we can test each of the answer choices to see if they are equivalent:

A. 0 + 2 = 2, so this expression is not equivalent.

B. 0/0 is undefined, so this expression is not equivalent.

C. This is the correct answer since neither A nor B are equivalent to the original expression.

Therefore, the answer is (Choice C) None of the above.
