Answer:
[tex](f/g)(x) = \frac{x + 5}{3x + 5} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 3x² + 10x - 25
g(x) = 9x² - 25
To find (f/g)(x) divide f(x) by g(x)
That's
[tex](f/g)(x) = \frac{3 {x}^{2} + 10x - 25 }{9 {x}^{2} - 25 } [/tex]
Factorize both the numerator and the denominator
For the numerator
3x² + 10x - 25
3x² + 15x - 5x - 25
3x ( x + 5) - 5( x + 5)
(3x - 5 ) ( x + 5)
For the denominator
9x² - 25
(3x)² - 5²
Using the formula
a² - b² = ( a + b)(a - b)
(3x)² - 5² = (3x + 5)(3x - 5)
So we have
[tex](f/g)(x) = \frac{(3x - 5)(x + 5)}{(3x + 5)(3x - 5)} [/tex]
Simplify
We have the final answer as
[tex](f/g)(x) = \frac{x + 5}{3x + 5} [/tex]
Hope this helps you
