Answer:
[tex]\frac{-3}{-26}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{-x-8}{x^{2}-4x-21}[/tex] is what you are looking for.
So with x = -5, it would look like this
[tex]\frac{-(-5)-8}{-5^{2}-(-5)4-21}[/tex]
Simple math now.
-(-5) is 5
[tex]-5^{2} = -25[/tex]
-5 * -4 = 20.
So it should be [tex]\frac{5-8}{-25+20-21}[/tex]
5-8=-3
-25+20-21 = -26
So the answer is[tex]\frac{-3}{-26}[/tex]
