The first step for solving this problem is to know that in order to divide by a fraction,, we must multiply by the reciprocal of that fraction. This will look like the following:
\frac{x+2}{ x^{2} -6x-16} × 9x
Write -6x as a difference.
\frac{x+2}{ x^{2} +2x-8x-16} × 9x
Factor out x from x² + 2x.
\frac{x+2}{ x X (x+2)-8x-16} × 9x
Factor out -8 from -8(x + 2).
\frac{x+2}{ x X (x+2)-8(x+2)} × 9x
Factor out x + 2 from the denominator (bottom) of the expression.
\frac{x+2}{(x+2)X(x-8)} × 9x
Reduce the fraction with x + 2
\frac{1}{x-8} × 9x
Finally,, calculate the product to find your final answer.
\frac{9x}{x-8}
This means that the correct answer to your question is going to be option B.

Which pair of slopes represent perpendicular lines?
Artist 52 [7]
The correct answer is C.

Perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes. This mean you will flip the original number upside down, and change its sign (negative to positive and vice versa). So, the opposite of -1/4 will be 4.
