Question 373321:  Can you please help me with these questions? I am stuck! 
 
1. Simplify completely. 5x - 10/x^2 divided by 5 =  
-2,  
x - 2/x,  
-1, or  
x^2 - 2x/x^2  
?
 
2. Simplify the following expression. Please show all work.  
x^2-25/x divided by x^2 + 6x + 5/x^2
 
3. Simplify completely.  
4a - 8/6-12a =  
-2/3,  
2(1-2)/3(1-2a), 
 2a-2/3-6a,  
or 2a-2/3-3a?
 
4. Simplify completely.  
3x + 9/3x =  
9, 
 4,  
x+3/x, 
or x+6?
 
5. Simplify completely. x^2 - 25/x+1 multiplied by x^2 - 1/x -5 = (x-5)(x-1),(x+5),(x+1),(x+5)(x-1), or (x-5)(x+1)
 
6. Choose all the polynomials that are classified as difference of squares. 
p^2+4,  
9n^2-1,  
4a-b^2,  
12a^2 - 10a,  
m^4-n^4
 
7. Add and simplify. 
 x/3+5x/3 =  
2x, 
 5x^2/9,  
x, 
 or 5x^2/3
 
8. Add or subtract and simplify completely. 
 A. 16+x/x^3 + 7-4x/x^3  
and B. 5-t/t^2 + 1 - t - 3/ t^2+1
 
9. Simplify completely.  
2x+3/x-2 - x+5/x-2 =  
x+8/ x- 2, 
 3x-2/x-2, 
 1, 
 x-2/x
 
10. Solve for x.  
Solve x^2/x+12 = 2/1...  
-8,3  
24, -1 
-12,0 or 
 6,-4
 
11. Subtract and simplify 
 x^2/x+3 - 9/x+3 = 
 x^2-9/x+3, 
 x - 3, 
 x^2-9/x^2+9,  
or x^2-9/2x+6
 
12.  Subtract and simplify  
2y+7/y-5 - y+12/y-5 = 
 y^2-84/y-5,  
1, 
 y+19/y-5, 
 or zero
 
 
13.solve for x.  
x+2/3 = 6/ x -1  
-5, 4  
16, 19  
-2,1  
or -4,5
 
Thank you!!
