n^2+6n+5/n+1 dividing rational expressions.. please help and show work

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

have you learned synthetic division, that would work best here

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im doing grade recovery so i barely remember anything

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

actually you could also factor the numerator...it turns out nice

OpenStudy (radar):

(n+1)(n+5) --------- (n+1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would be just n+5

OpenStudy (radar):

synthetic division is worth learning.

OpenStudy (radar):

But is not really needed for this one.

OpenStudy (radar):

It just so happened for this one the divisior (n+1) was a factor.

OpenStudy (radar):

Yes.
