You can put this solution on YOUR website! find the product and simplify
X^2+12x+35 over X^2+14x+45 multiply by X^2+9x over X^2+5x-14
-----------------------
Factor where you can to get:
[(x+7)(x+5)]/[(x+9)(x+5)] * [x(x+9)]/[(x+7)(x-2)]
------------------------
= Cancel factors that are common to a numerator and a denominator
such as (x+7),(x+5),(x+9)
----------
= [1]/[1] * [x]/[(x-2)]
----------
= x/(x-2)
