Question

Please help me I AM STUCK, and please explain how you get the answer.

Answer 1

C) 5

Explanation:

`(6x²+19x+10)/(2x+5)`

=
`(3x(2x+5)+2(2x+5))/(2x+5)`

=
`((2x+5)(3x+2))/(2x+5)`

= 3x+2

which means that if they want us to find what ax+b is, you can figure out that ax+b is similar to 3x+2 and plug in what they want us to solve for, a+b.

ax+b=3x+2 (hence 3=a and 2=b)

wants: a+b

answer: 3+2= 5

hope this helps! :)
