True/False

A financial analyst is simplifying a growth-rate formula represented by the complex rational expression:

rac{b-\frac{3b}{b+5}}{\frac{2}{b+5}+\frac{1}{b-5}}

True or False: In the first step of simplifying this expression by writing it as division, the numerator bβˆ’3bb+5b - \frac{3b}{b+5} is correctly rewritten as the single rational expression b2+2bb+5\frac{b^2+2b}{b+5}.
