Answer:

(x + 7)^2 = 64

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 23x – 19 = 9x - 4

x^2 + 23x - 9x = -4 + 19

x^2 + 14x = 15 = 0

Completing the square:

(x + 14/2)^2 - (14/2)^2 = 15

(x + 7)^2 - 49 = 15

(x + 7)^2 = 64

(5x^2+20x) ÷(x+4) divide, it's really important, I thank you for the people who help me in this :)

Sergio [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression: $\frac{5x^2+20x}{x+4}$

Take the common number 5 outside in the numerator.

$\frac{5x^2+20x}{x+4}=\frac{5(x^2+4x)}{x+4}$

Now, take x common in both the terms in numerator.

$\frac{5(x^2+4x)}{x+4}=\frac{5x(x+4)}{x+4}$

Cancel out the common factor in the both numerator and denominator.

$\frac{5x(x+4)}{x+4}=5x$

Hence, the answer is 5x.
