Simplify -x-y+(x^2+y^2)/(x-y)

$- x - y + \frac{x^{2} + y^{2}}{x - y}$

Step 1

To write $- x$ as a fraction with a common denominator, multiply by $\frac{x - y}{x - y}$ .

Factor $y$ out of $x y + y^{2}$ .

Factor $y$ out of $x y$ .

$- y + \frac{y x + y^{2}}{x - y}$

Factor $y$ out of $y^{2}$ .

$- y + \frac{y x + y \cdot y}{x - y}$

Factor $y$ out of $y x + y \cdot y$ .

$- y + \frac{y (x + y)}{x - y}$

Step 4

To write $- y$ as a fraction with a common denominator, multiply by $\frac{x - y}{x - y}$ .

$- y \cdot \frac{x - y}{x - y} + \frac{y (x + y)}{x - y}$

Step 5

Simplify terms.

Combine $- y$ and $\frac{x - y}{x - y}$ .

$\frac{- y (x - y)}{x - y} + \frac{y (x + y)}{x - y}$

Combine the numerators over the common denominator.

$\frac{- y (x - y) + y (x + y)}{x - y}$

Step 6

Simplify the numerator.

Factor $y$ out of $- y (x - y) + y (x + y)$ .

Factor $y$ out of $- y (x - y)$ .

$\frac{y (- (x - y)) + y (x + y)}{x - y}$

Factor $y$ out of $y (- (x - y)) + y (x + y)$ .

$\frac{y (- (x - y) + x + y)}{x - y}$

Apply the distributive property.

$\frac{y (- x - - y + x + y)}{x - y}$

Multiply $- - y$ .
