Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the polynomials.

x^2-4 = (x+2)(x-2)

x^2+5x+6 = (x+3)(x+2)

(x^2-4)/(x^2+5x+6) = (x+2)(x-2)/[(x+3)(x+2)] = (x-2)/(x+3)

Karen spends $450 on monthly bills. Of this total amount, 12% is for phone service, 1/10 is for internet service, and 2/9 is for

finlep [7]

12%= 0.12 = 12/100 = 108/900
1/10 = 90/900
2/9 = 200/900

108/900 + 90/900 + 200/900 = 398/900 used

900- 398 = 502

502/900 = 251/ 450

251/450 × 450 = 251

$Answer:\ \boxed{5^2}$

$\sqrt[n]{a}=a^\frac{1}{n}\\\\\text{therefore}\\\\\sqrt5=5^\frac{1}{2}\\----------------\\25=5^2\\----------------\\78,125=5^7\\----------------\\\text{use}\\\\a^n\cdot a^m=a^{n+m}\\\\\dfrac{a^n}{a^m}=a^{n-m}\\----------------\\\\\dfrac{\sqrt5\times78,125}{25\times5^{\frac{7}{2}}}=\dfrac{5^\frac{1}{2}\times5^7}{5^2\times5^\frac{7}{2}}=\dfrac{5^{\frac{1}{2}+7}}{5^{2+3\frac{1}{2}}}=\dfrac{5^{7\frac{1}{2}}}{5^{5\frac{1}{2}}}=5^{7\frac{1}{2}-5\frac{1}{2}}=\boxed{5^2}$
