There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?

In this case, it helps to use the quadratic formula on the numerator of the fraction.

(x2-25)=(x+5)(x-5)

Now, substituting this back into the fraction, we are able to cancel out he (x+5) term from both the numerator and denominator. Thus, the answer is (x2-25)/(x+5)=(x-5).
