Question

What is the simplified form of (4x^2-25)/(2x+5)
2x-5, with the restriction x≠ -5/2 <--?
2x+5, with the restriction x≠ 5/2
2x-5, with the restriction x≠ 5/2
2x+5, with the restriction x≠ -5/2

Answer 1

first of all we cannot divide by 0
so when is 2x+5, 0?
that is solve 2x+5=0

Answer 2

this will give you your restriction

Answer 3

then you will need to simplify your expression
hint difference of squares
a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)
