Answer:
(1 -x +√(x -1))/(x² -3x +2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Fill in the given function definition and simplify.
[tex]\dfrac{f(x)-f(2)}{x-2}=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{x-1}}-\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2-1}}}{x-2}=\dfrac{1-\sqrt{x-1}}{(x-2)\sqrt{x-1}}\\\\=\dfrac{\sqrt{x-1}-x+1}{(x-2)(x-1)}=\boxed{\dfrac{\sqrt{x-1}-x+1}{x^2-3x+2}}[/tex]
