NEED HELP QUICK!!!!!!! Given: X = r + 2, Y = 2r - 9, and Z = r2 + 17r + 30. Simplify [X · Y - Z] ÷ X. -r - 24 r - 24 2r2 - 6r - 33 2r2 + 6r + 33
[R + 2 * 2R - 9 - R^2 + 17R + 30] / R + 2 That's how I'd write it out, right?

Ooh this looks fun
\[\frac{ (x \times y - z) }{ x }\] this is your problem right (just making sure)
I'm not sure. I'm supposed to simplify the given equation, [X * Y - Z] / X
Yes, pretty much. Sorry, had to write it out to notice it.
Right, so all you have to do is plug it in, so let me make it look nice for you\[\frac{ (x \times y - z) }{ x } \implies \frac{ [(r+2)(2r-9)-(r^2+17r+30)] }{ r+2 }\]
Seems reasonable, let me know if you have any doubts, can you simplify now?
I'm not sure, that's how it'd be written I know. But I'm having trouble understanding how to simplify it.
