Given: x = r + 2, y = 2r - 9, and z = r 2 + 17r + 30. simplify [x · y - z] ÷ x.

( (r+2) * (2r-9)-(r^2+17r+30) )/(r+2)

none of the parenthetical operations or power operations can be simplified further, so multiplication and division first, left to right:

(2r(r+2) -9(r+2) - r^2 + 17r +30)/(r+2)

(2r^2 + 2r -9r+18 -r^2 +17r +30 )/(r+2)

(r^2 +10r +48)/(r+2)
