Question

Simplify the complex rational expression 1/x+6/5/x^2-36

Answer 1

x-6/5 is the answer I got

Answer 2

`(36*x+6)*(5*x+1)`

Explanation:

The expression can be written as:

`1/x+(6/5)/x^2-36`

We can simplfy the expression by multiplying the expression by 5x^2 to get rid of the fractions:

`(5*x^2*(1/x))+5*x^2*(6/5)*x^2-36*5*x^2`

`-180*x^2+6x+5`

Multiply by -1

`180*x^2-6x-5`

`(36*x+6)*(5*x+1)`
