Question

Simplify x^2-9x-22/x-11

Answer 1

x^2-11/-8x

Explanation:

We can solve this equation easily by using PEMDAS, or order of operations.

Parenthesis

Exponents

Multiplication>Division (Depends on which comes first left to right)

Addition>Subtraction (See multiplication>division)

Now that we know the order of the operations, we can solve.

First, we cant solve for x^2 because we dont know the value of x, so well leave that alone. Same with 22/x. All we can do is use the commutative property.

So our equation is now x^2-11/-8x

Hope this helps!
