Answer:

[tex]\frac{x+9}{x+4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the numerator and denominator

x² + 5x - 36 = (x + 9)(x - 4)

x² - 16 = (x + 4)(x - 4) ← difference of squares

The fraction can now be expressed as

[tex]\frac{(x+9)(x-4)}{(x+4)(x-4)}[/tex] cancel the factor ( x - 4) on numerator/ denominator

= [tex]\frac{x+9}{x+4}[/tex]
