2x-5 / x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x^2 - 3x - 5) / (x^2 + 6x + 5)

Write -3x as a difference

= (2x^2 +2x - 5x -5) / (x^2+5x+x+5)

Factor out 2x from the expression

= 2x *(x+1) -5 * (x+1) / x*(x+5)+x+5

Factor out x+1 from the expression

= (x+1) * (2x-5) / (x+5)* (x+1)

Reduce the fraction with x+1

= 2x-5 / x+5

answer: there are x+184 pages in olivia's book.

step-by-step explanation:

let the total number of pages in the book which olive has already read be x.

then if olive has 184 pages left to read, then the total number of pages are in olive's book= pages she has read+pages she has left to read

therefore, the total number of pages in olivia's book=

hence, there are x+184 pages in olivia's book.

the domain of a function is the set of input values, x , for which a function is defined. the domain is shown in the left oval in the picture below. the function provides an output value, f(x) , for each member of the domain.
