Multiply: 3y^2+13y+14 divided by y^2+3y+2 * 2y^2-3y-2 divided by 3y^2+22y+35
This is what I came up with. Is this correct?
(y+2)(3y+7)divided by (y+2)(y+1) * (y-2)(2y+1) divided by (3y+7)(y+5) equals to (y-2)(2y+1) divided by (y+1)(y+5) Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! This is what I came up with. Is this correct?

Your factoring is correct.
---
[(y+2)(3y+7)]/[(y+2)(y+1)] * [(y-2)(2y+1)]/[(3y+7)(y+5)]
---
Cancel the y+2 factor:
Cancel the 3y+7 factor:
---
(1/(y+1)
---
equals to (y-2)(2y+1) divided by (y+1)(y+5)
---
You are correct.
