Reema and Sohini bought (x^2 - 9) mangoes.They divided into (x+3) groups.Each group has three rotten mangoes.How many good
mangoes does each group contain?
Pls give me answer

Respuesta :

Answer:

x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

divide number of mangoes bought by number of groups, that is

[tex]\frac{x^2-9}{x+3}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{(x+3)(x-3)}{x+3}[/tex] ← numerator is difference of squares

cancel the factor (x + 3) on numerator/denominator

number in each group = x - 3

subtract 3 rotten mangos from group for good mangoes

good mangoes = x - 3 - 3 = x - 6
