As a manufacturing technician, you are tasked with calculating the total cycle time for a two-part assembly process. The first part takes $\frac{x^2+8x}{x+5}$ minutes, and the second part takes $\frac{15}{x+5}$ minutes, where $x$ is a variable dependent on machine speed. To determine the fully simplified expression for the total cycle time, arrange the algebraic steps of the addition process in the correct chronological order.

A production supervisor uses the formula $\frac{x^2+8x}{x+5} + \frac{15}{x+5}$ to calculate the total processing time for a two-part assembly. When combining these two terms into a single rational expression according to the addition rule for common denominators, which of the following represents the resulting numerator before any factoring or simplification?

In a project budget analysis, a coordinator is combining two resource allocation formulas: $\frac{x^2+8x}{x+5}$ and $\frac{15}{x+5}$. To simplify the total allocation, the coordinator follows a standard algebraic procedure. Match each description of the simplification process with its corresponding mathematical expression.

A warehouse manager uses two algebraic models to predict storage needs: $\frac{x^2+8x}{x+5}$ and $\frac{15}{x+5}$, where $x$ represents the number of daily shipments. After adding these models, the manager obtains the rational expression $\frac{x^2+8x+15}{x+5}$. True or False: The numerator of this combined expression, $x^2+8x+15$, factors into $(x+3)(x+5)$.

A logistics analyst is streamlining a delivery cost model represented by the sum: $\frac{x^2+8x}{x+5} + \frac{15}{x+5}$. After adding the terms and simplifying the expression completely by factoring, the final simplified cost formula is ____.
