$\displaystyle \frac{x^2 - 25}{x - 5}$

Step 2: Simplify

1. Factor:                                                                                                               $\displaystyle \frac{(x - 5)(x + 5)}{x - 5}$
2. Divide:                                                                                                            $\displaystyle x + 5$

Answer 2

Answer:

x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

simplify the numerator, x²-25, to be (x+5)(x-5)

(x+5)(x-5) ÷ x-5 = x+5 because the (x-5) terms will cancel out
