GUYS I LITERALLY CANT DO THIS simplify x²-25 / 2x²-7x-15
I'm more stuck on simplifying the bottom the top part is fine

(x+5)/(2x+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know the top part is difference of two squares. So thats (x+5)(x-5)

The bottom part

Firstly you do 2 times -15= -30

Now we need to find two numbers with a difference of 7 but multiply to give 30.

30

1 x 30

2 x 15

3 x 10

5 x 6

From here we can see 3-10=-7 and multiply to make -30

So we do 2x²-10x+3x-15

simplify this in two different parts: 2x²-10x and 3x-15

2x(x-5) and 3(x-5)

Therefore we get (2x+3)(x-5)

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

x-5 is common so they cancel each other out leaving you with

(x+5)/(2x+3)

I hoped this helped :)
