Simplify

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{x^2-x-20}{4}\times \frac{10}{x-5}=\frac{10(x-5)(x+4)}{4(x-5)}\] then some cancellation will finish it for you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it´s \[\frac{ 10(x+4) }{ 4 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

does the 4 cancel out also? @satellite73

OpenStudy (callisto):

The 4 doesn't cancel out, but there is a common factor of 10 and 4.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so its 5(x+4)/2 ?

OpenStudy (callisto):

Yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you help me with this second one?
