Question 834929: Perform the operation and simplify:
+%28x%5E2-8x%2B15%29%2F%28x%5E2%2B12x%2B32%29+ multiplied by +%28x%2B4%29%2F%28x%5E2-25%29+
+%28x-5%29%28x-3%29%2F%28x%2B8%29%28x%2B4%29+ multiplied by +%28x%2B4%29%2F%28x%2B5%29+
I got this far. Where do I go from here to simplify, and come up with an answer?

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
You forgot one of the factorizations.

%28%28x%5E2-8x%2B15%29%2F%28x%5E2%2B12x%2B32%29%29%28%28x%2B4%29%2F%28x%5E2-25%29%29





Now you can do the multiplying to simplify.
