Answer 1

x-2

Explanation:

Answer 2

`(x^2+2x+1-g)/(x+4)`

Explanation:

We are given the following expression and we are to evaluate it and find the expression equivalent to it:

`\frac { ( x + 1 ) ^ 2 - g } { x + 4 }`

We know that
`(a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2` so we will expand the term
`( x + 1 ) ^ 2` according to this to get:

`(x+1)^2=x^2+2x+1`

Therefore, we get the expression:

`\frac { x ^ 2 + 2 x + 1 - g } { x + 4 }`
