If x = -3 evaluate the following expression
(x-2)(x+9)
________
x(x+5)

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
you have to substitute x with -3, so where you see x in the equation you write a -3 and calculate
[tex]\frac{(x-2)(x+9)}{x(x+5)} = \frac{(-3-2)(-3+9)}{-3(-3+5)} = \frac{-5*6}{-3*2} =\frac{-5}{-1} =5[/tex]
