Question

can you check my answer pls?

Answer 1

sure! just show us your work and we'll be happy to

Answer 2

the equation is \[x^2-4x+4/x^2+10+25*x+5/x^2+3x-10\]

Answer 3

and my answer is \[(x-2)/(x+5)^2\]

Answer 4

ok, and what did you have to do? simplify?

Answer 5

yea simplify

Answer 6

so, let's make sure we write this correctly first, \[\frac{x^2−4x+4}{(x^2+10+25}\times \frac{x+5}{x^2+3x−10}\]
Is this it?

Answer 7

yea i think

Answer 8

if you see question marks refresht he page

Answer 9

ignore the one parenthesis

Answer 10

yea thats my equation thanks for the refresh tip

Answer 11

ok, so now, what did you do first?

Answer 12

factored each thing that can be factored

Answer 13

ok, and in words or typed, what did they factor to?

Answer 14

\[x^2-4x+4= (x-2)^2\]
\[x^2+10x+25= (x+5)^2\]
\[x^2+3x-10= (x-2)(x+5)\]

Answer 15

very good!

Answer 16

ok so now, let me rewrite that

Answer 17

\[\frac{(x-2)^2}{(x+5)^2}\times \frac{(x+5)}{(x-2)(x+5)}\]

Answer 18

so now, what did you do?

Answer 19

canceled out like terms

Answer 20

and what did that leave you with?

Answer 21

(You can just say I said it above)

Answer 22

\[x-2/x+5*x+5\] i think

Answer 23

yep, which is your answer from above, so you are indeed correct!

Answer 24

yay thank you

Answer 25

now the important thing to remember here is how you multiply fractions as we did not mention that

Answer 26

np, very good work
