the first one just means subtract
use parentheses
\[5x+4-(2x+5)\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you get a polynomial, in fact you get a line
the domain of any polynomial is all real numbers
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the second one just means divide
\[\frac{5x+4}{2x+5}\]
OpenStudy (anonymous):
to find the domain, set \(2x+5=0\) and solve for \(x\)
then say "all real numbers except your answer"

IS THE FIRST ONE 3X-1?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
1/3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and the second one is -4/5
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes, the first one is \(3x-1\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
and domain is x not equal to -5/2

that is for the domain of \(\frac{f(x)}{g(x)}\) yes
domain for \(a\) is all real numbers
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i am not sure what you mean by "second one is -4/5"
OpenStudy (anonymous):
for b when i divide i get that answer
OpenStudy (anonymous):
looks like \(b\) has two parts

first answer is \(\frac{5x+4}{2x+5}\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
that is the entire answer
you cannot simplify this in any way
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so for both answers i leave them as functions? not fractions
