Simplify (frac{1}{x – 2}) + (frac{1}{x + 2}) + (frac{2x}{x^2 – 4})

Simplify (frac{1}{x – 2}) + (frac{1}{x + 2}) + (frac{2x}{x^2 – 4})
  • A.
    (frac{2x}{(x – 2)(x + 2)(x^2 – 4)})
  • B.
    (frac{2x}{x^2 – 4})
  • C.
    (frac{x}{x^2 – 4})
  • D.
    (frac{4x}{x^2 – 4})
Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation

(frac{1}{x – 2}) + (frac{1}{x + 2}) + (frac{2x}{x^2 – 4})
= (frac{(x + 2) + (x – 2) + 2x}{(x + 2)(x – 2)})
= (frac{4x}{x^2 – 4})
