3. eli123 Group Title

well i checked it and it says its wrong :/

4. eli123 Group Title

i'm checking it again

5. jim_thompson5910 Group Title

hmm does it place any restriction on x and h?

6. eli123 Group Title

no i only have to simplify it

7. jim_thompson5910 Group Title

alright one second

8. eli123 Group Title

rationalize the denominator

9. jim_thompson5910 Group Title

well what you have is correct, but perhaps the computer system is really picky and they want it a certain way?

10. eli123 Group Title

probably

11. eli123 Group Title

if i get it wrong, i could do another one but i really dont want to go through the process again

12. jim_thompson5910 Group Title

Maybe they want the answer as $\Large \frac{2x+h+2\sqrt{x(x+h)}}{h}$ or maybe as $\Large \frac{2x+h+2\sqrt{x}\sqrt{x+h}}{h}$ or maybe as $\Large \frac{x+h+2\sqrt{x}\sqrt{x+h}+x}{h}$

13. jim_thompson5910 Group Title

They're all equivalent to what you wrote

14. eli123 Group Title

yes i got it! i tried the second one
