Solution steps

\frac{- 4 x ^{2}}{24 x ^{5}}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{- a}{b} = - \frac{a}{b}

= - \frac{4 x ^{2}}{24 x ^{5}}

Cancel the common factor:

4

= \frac{x ^{2}}{6 x ^{5}}

Apply exponent rule:

\frac{x ^{a}}{x ^{b}} = \frac{1}{x ^{b - a}}

\frac{x ^{2}}{x ^{5}} = \frac{1}{x ^{5 - 2}}

= \frac{1}{6 x ^{5 - 2}}

Subtract the numbers:

5 - 2 = 3

= - \frac{1}{6 x ^{3}}

(x + 2) (x - 2) - (x + 1) (x - 1)

4 d^{- 3} \cdot d^{18}

(s + 3) (s + 4)

\frac{64}{3}

(x - 16)^{2}
