Ok, if any one reads this, I would like someone to explain something for me.

From the 2001 HC paper, Question 7 c.

Displacement: X= (t-2)/(t+2)
ii. Show that x = 1 - 4/(t+2)

In the answers it says:
x = [(t+2)-4]/(t+2)
= (t+2)/(t+2) 4/(t+2)
= the question.

Now I don't quite understand where they whipped this new equation from and also the t + 2 's

(t+2) - 4 = t-2

So (t-2)/(t+2)
= [(t+2)-4]/(t+2)
= (t+2)/(t+2) - 4/(t+2) [By splitting the fraction]
= 1 - 4/(t+2)
