Please don't copy and paste from other sites. Show me how you got the answer. You own way! I'm very slow and im trying to pass.

flip the divisor and make it \[\large \frac{x^2-x-20}{4}\times \frac{10}{x-5}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then factor and cancel

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i.e. write \[\large \frac{(x-5)(x+4)}{4}\times \frac{10}{x-5}=\frac{5(x+4)}{2}\]
