can someone please tell me if i got the correct answer for this problem? Simplify completely x-2/(x+5)^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got x-2/x+5 but i'm not completely sure.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wouldn't it be x-2/x^2+10x+25

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because (x+5)^2 is the same as (x+5)(x+5) which is x^2+10x+25

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well it's multiple choice, the options are a. x-2/x+5 b. x-2/(x-5)^2 c. (x-2)^2/x+5 d. (x-2)^2/(x+5)^2
