Simplify fully (x^2 + x - 6)/(x^2 - 9).

  1. Factorise the numerator: x^2 + x - 6 = (x + 3)(x - 2).
  2. Factorise the denominator using the difference of two squares: x^2 - 9 = (x - 3)(x + 3).
  3. Rewrite the fraction as [(x + 3)(x - 2)] / [(x - 3)(x + 3)].
  4. Cancel the common factor of (x + 3) from the numerator and denominator.
  5. Final answer: (x - 2)/(x - 3).
