Expert Solution
Step 1

Solution )[( z2 - 4 )/ ( z - 3 )]/[(z + 2)/( z2 + z - 12)]

[( z2 - 22 ) ( z2 + z - 12 )/ ( z - 3 )(z + 2)  ]

= ( z + 2 ) ( z - 2 ) ( z2 +4z - 3z - 12 )/ ( z - 3 ) ( z + 2)

= ( z + 2 ) ( z - 2 )[ z ( z + 4 ) - 3( z + 4 )]/(z - 3 )(z+2)

= ( z + 2 ) ( z - 2 )(z -3)( z + 4) / ( z - 3 ) ( z + 2)

= ( z - 2 ) ( z + 4 )

= z2 +4z - 2z - 8

= z2 + 2z - 8 

There is no restriction in variable
