HELP WITH MATH PLS!!!!!

Answer 1

The difference of 32 · x² / (x² + 8 · x + 15) - 14 · x² / (x² - 9) is equal to [18 · x³ - 166 · x²] / [(x + 3) · (x + 5) · (x - 3)]. (Correct choice: B)

What is the result of the subtraction between two algebraic rational functions?

In this question we have a subtraction between two rational functions, which have to be simplified by algebra properties. The complete procedure is presented below:

32 · x² / (x² + 8 · x + 15) - 14 · x² / (x² - 9)        Given

32 · x² / [(x + 3) · (x + 5)] - 14 · x² / [(x + 3) · (x - 3)]         Factorization

[x² / (x + 3)] · [32 / (x + 5) - 14 / (x - 3)]      Distributive and associative properties

[x² / (x + 3)] · [32 · (x - 3) - 14 · (x + 5)] / [(x + 5) · (x - 3)]      Subtraction of rational numbers with distinct denominators

[x² / (x + 3)] · [32 · x - 96 - 14 · x - 70] / [(x + 5) · (x - 3)]     Distributive property / (- 1) · a = - a

[x² / (x + 3)] · (18 · x - 166) / [(x + 5) · (x - 3)]      Distributive property / Definitions of addition and subtraction

[18 · x³ - 166 · x²] / [(x + 3) · (x + 5) · (x - 3)]         Mutiplication between rational numbers / Multiplication between powers / Distributive property

The difference of 32 · x² / (x² + 8 · x + 15) - 14 · x² / (x² - 9) is equal to [18 · x³ - 166 · x²] / [(x + 3) · (x + 5) · (x - 3)]. (Correct choice: B)
