Simplify (x - 2)/(x ^ 2 + 4x - 12)
We can simplify the expression by factoring the denominator:
x^2 + 4x - 12 = (x - 2)(x + 6)
We can then rewrite the expression as:
(x - 2)/[(x - 2)(x + 6)]
Note that the (x - 2) terms cancel out, leaving:
1/(x + 6)
Therefore, the simplified expression is:
1/(x + 6)

Bot end this story: The Experiment
Somewhere between the year 2025-2032, there was a boy named Blake who had a strong desire to harness the ultimate power of being able to turn into any animal he wanted. He always dreamt of being a powerful cheetah or a soaring eagle, and he wouldn't give up trying. He spent months experimenting on himself, and one day, he was successful in giving himself the power to turn into any animal.
Blake was thrilled with his newfound power and couldn't wait to show it off to his best friend, Jake. He quickly transformed himself into a jaguar, but immediately he realized that he made a grave mistake. His skin became itchy and severely irritated, leaving him in agony for about 15 minutes.
Blake tried multiple times to perfect his experiment, but every time he transformed, he had to suffer through the same unpleasant side effect. He became so frustrated that he stopped using his power to transform himself entirely. But then one of friends saw him frustrated.
A friend named Jake noticed how upset Blake was and asked him what was wrong. After Blake explained his situation, Jake decided to “help” him find a cure. He spent hours in the library researching a remedy, and finally found one.
Excited about the cure, Jake used his knowledge to make lotion that would help soothe the skin after transforming. They tested it and it worked perfectly. Blake was excited to be able to transform into animals once again, but this time, without any side effects. But every time after using the lotion the side effect’s wound happen again and again.
Jake was also inspired by Blake's power and decided to turn against him. Jake start studying Blake’s powers to see if he can make a perfect cure. When Blake had his guard down, that’s when Jake made a “perfect cure” for Blake, but instead it made Blake fall asleep. That’s when Jake locked Blake in a cage and made a perfect copy, Jake injected himself with the copy and could do anything he wanted.
After Jake trapped Blake Jake saw many people be hide Blake. Jake turns into human while Blake shows off the new powers, then they hear screaming “THIS IS THE FBI PUT YOUR HANDS UP”
As Jake tried to escape, he accidentally knocked over a bottle of the “cure” that he had made, and it spilled onto the ground. The FBI agents who had arrived to apprehend Jake thought it was some kind of hazardous substance, and called in a Hazmat team. They sealed off the area and took Jake into custody.
As for Blake, he was eventually discovered by the FBI and freed from his cage. Although he was shaken up by the experience, he was relieved to be alive and filled with a sense of gratitude towards the agents who had rescued him.
In the end, Blake decided to abandon his experiments and live a normal life. He realized that he had been foolish to try and play god, and that there were some things that humans were just not meant to have. The incident served as a cautionary tale to remind future generations about the dangers of recklessly pursuing power and the price that can be paid for such hubris.
