Simplifying a fraction of polynomials












0












$begingroup$


This is a really simple question. All I want to know is how it goes from that first line of the equation to the second line, what is it they're doing. I'm just missing something, can someone explain.
$$
begin{split}
H(z) &= frac{0.3249(z+1)}{(z-1)+0.3249z+0.3249}\
H(z) &= frac{0.3249(z+1)}{1.3249z-0.6751}
end{split}
$$

Note that the denominator can be simplified:
$$
(z-1) + 0.3249z + 0.3249 = (z + 0.3249z) + (0.3249-1) = 1.3249z - 0.6751.
$$
