Question

Simplify 9x^2 - 25/3x-5

Answer 1

First, we are going to write it like this:

`(9x^2-25)/(3x-5)`
Then, we are going to do something like factoring, but it's not factoring. An example would be:
`x^2-y^2=\left(x+y\right)\left(x-y\right)`
If we apply it, we would be left with:

`=(\left(3x+5\right)\left(3x-5\right))/(3x-5)`
We cancel the common factors, and we are left with:

`=3x+5`
That's our final answer.
