Question

simplify 3x^2-3-60
---------
x^2+9x+20

Answer 1

list restrictions.

Answer 2

i thinks you forgot -3x
But basically top factors to

(3*(x+4))*(x-5)

Answer 3

3(x^2-1-20)
3(x(x-5)+4(x-5))
3((x-5)(x+4))

Answer 4

if it is mid term -3x

Answer 5

numerator simplifies to (x+5)*(x+4)

Answer 6

(3*(x-5))/(x+5)

Answer 7

x cant be -5 is the restriction

Answer 8

yes i did forget that 3x^2-3x-60
----------
x^2+9x+20

Answer 9

the second one (x+4)(x+5)
divide first and second
3(x-5)(x+4)/(x+5)(x+4)=3(x-5)/(x+5)

Answer 10

the second one (x+4)(x+5)
divide first and second
3(x-5)(x+4)/(x+5)(x+4)=3(x-5)/(x+5)

Answer 11

Confused... please one step at a time

Answer 12

factor top factor bottom and see what cancles out

Answer 13

(3*(x+4))*(x-5)
----
(x+5)*(x+4)
x+4 cancels so

(3*(x-5))/(x+5)

Answer 14

so thats the answer?

Answer 15

(3*(x-5))/(x+5) is the answer and

x cant be - 5 is the restriction.

Answer 16

actor top factor bottom and see what cancles out
are these the complete steps?

Answer 17

factor

Answer 18

Yup basically :)

Answer 19

factor 3*x^2-3*x-60 -> (3*(x+4))*(x-5)
--------------------------------------------
factor x^2+9x+20 -> (x+5)*(x+4)

x+4 cancles so

Answer is
3*(x-5)
-------
x+5

Answer 20

did you have a different answer before?

Answer 21

no

Answer 22

(3*(x-5))/(x+5) is the final answer :D

Answer 23

oh i get it thanks

Answer 24

YAY a medal :D
