Question

Please Help me.. I don't understand it.
1. (2x^2+5x-12)/(+4)
2. (3x^2-7x-6)/(x-3)

Answer 1

I guess you have to express it in the simplest form..

Answer 2

How would you do that?

Answer 3

1. (2x^2+5x-12)/(x+4) : I was trying to find a factor that when you add the two you would get 5 but there is nothing. So now i'm lost ...

Answer 4

find the factor of the numerator \[2x ^{2}+5x-12\]
--> (2x-3)(x+4)
then cancel out x+4 so that the simplest form would be 2x-3

Answer 5

this may help
