01 Simplify each rational expression. Keep the stated excluded value in mind.

Use exact answers: x^2 for powers, sqrt(2) for radicals and i for imaginary numbers. Separate solutions with commas.

1. Simplify (x-2)(x+4)/(x-2) on the original domain x ≠ 2. Give the expression only.

2. Simplify (x+2)(x-3)/(x+2) on the original domain x ≠ -2. Give the expression only.

3. Simplify (x+2)(x-1)/(x+2) on the original domain x ≠ -2. Give the expression only.

4. Simplify (x-2)(x-6)/(x-2) on the original domain x ≠ 2. Give the expression only.

5. Simplify (x-3)(x-5)/(x-3) on the original domain x ≠ 3. Give the expression only.

6. Simplify (x+5)(x-2)/(x+5) on the original domain x ≠ -5. Give the expression only.

7. Simplify (x+4)(x+1)/(x+4) on the original domain x ≠ -4. Give the expression only.

8. Simplify (x+4)(x-1)/(x+4) on the original domain x ≠ -4. Give the expression only.
