(x^2-4)/(x-1) divide the polynomial

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use long division or synthetic division.  Whichever method you choose, remember to include a zero for the missing term (0x)

Synthetic division:         x - 1 = 0   -->   x = 1

Long Division:

3< x< 5

step-by-step explanation:

|x - 4| < 1

there are two solutions, one positive and one negative.   remember to flip the inequality when taking the negative solution

x-4 < 1       x-4 > -1

add 4 to each side

x-4+4 < 1+4       x-4+4 > -1+4

x< 5                 x> 3

3< x< 5
