Q. Simplify. Express your answer as a single fraction in simplest form. z2−y
Identify Expression: Identify the expression to be simplified.We have the expression z−y2. This is already a single fraction, so we need to check if it can be simplified further.
Find Common Factors: Look for common factors in the numerator and the denominator.The numerator is 2, which is a prime number, and the denominator is (z−y), which does not contain the factor 2. Therefore, there are no common factors that can be canceled out.
Check Simplest Form: Determine if the expression is in simplest form.Since there are no common factors between the numerator and the denominator, the expression z−y2 is already in its simplest form.
