I think- and this is just out loud- that you would do (Cx + D) Over the X^2 + 2?

Am I getting that right?

OR

You have Cx + D over something if the SOMETHING has a term of X to a power greater than one?

Am I right?

It seems like you are simplifying an algebraic expression involving fractions. To clarify, in the expression (Cx + D)/(x^2 + 2), C and D are constants and x represents a variable.

When dealing with fractions, it is generally best to simplify the expression as much as possible. In this case, we can start by factoring the denominator. The denominator, x^2 + 2, cannot be further simplified, so it remains the same.

To simplify the numerator, (Cx + D), we can expand and combine like terms, if possible. This means distributing C over x and then adding D.

Therefore, the final simplified form of the expression would be (Cx + D)/(x^2 + 2).

To summarize, you were correct in your understanding that if the denominator contains a term with x raised to a power greater than one, then you may have a fraction with (Cx + D) in the numerator over that denominator. Remember, simplifying fractions involves factoring and combining like terms if necessary.
