The correct Answer is:
To solve the expression \((xy - zx)/(z - y)\), we will simplify it step by step. ### Step 1: Rewrite the expression We start with the expression: \[ \frac{xy - zx}{z - y} \] ### Step 2: Factor out common terms in the numerator In the numerator \(xy - zx\), we can factor out \(x\): \[ xy - zx = x(y - z) \] So, we can rewrite the expression as: \[ \frac{x(y - z)}{z - y} \] ### Step 3: Use the property of subtraction We know that \(y - z\) can be rewritten using the property of subtraction: \[ y - z = -1(z - y) \] Substituting this into our expression gives: \[ \frac{x(-1(z - y))}{z - y} \] ### Step 4: Simplify the expression Now, we can simplify the expression: \[ \frac{-x(z - y)}{z - y} \] Since \(z - y\) is in both the numerator and the denominator, and \(y \neq z\) (which means \(z - y \neq 0\)), we can cancel \(z - y\): \[ -x \] ### Final Result Thus, the simplified expression is: \[ \frac{xy - zx}{z - y} = -x \]
