\bf{(x^(2) +5x+6 )/(x+2) }

Rewrite the term.

x² + 2x + 3x + 6

Group the terms into two fractional parts.

(x² + 2x + (3x + 6)

Factor the expression

x(x + 2) + 3 (x + 2)


\boldsymbol{\sf{\frac{(\\ot{x+2)(x+3)}}{\\ot{x+2}}=x+3 \to Option \ C }}

\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \bold{\cfrac{x {}^(2) + 5 x + 6 }{x + 2} }

Answer :

Note: To solve a problem like this, we must first determine which of the two numbers add 5 and multiply 6, we know that they are 2 and 3 and then we must Rewrite the expression using the above.


\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \bold{(x+2)(x+3)}

Now, we must put a fraction since we can more easily solve the problem posed.


\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \bold{ \cfrac{(x + 2)(x + 3)}{x + 2} }

Now the last thing we have to do is Cancel
\bold{x+2} to have a final result that is the following:


\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \bold{x+3}
