Answer:

x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression,

[tex](x^2-4)\div (x+2)=x-2[/tex]

[tex]\frac{x^2-4}{x+2}=x-2[/tex]

Multplying both sides by x + 2 ( Division property of equality )

[tex]\frac{x^2-4}{x+2}\times (x+2)=(x-2)\times (x+2)[/tex]

[tex]x^2-4=(x-2)(x+2)[/tex]

[tex]\implies x^2-4=(x+2)(x-2)[/tex]  ( By commutative property )

Thus, SECOND OPTION is correct.
