Simplify the radical expression 4x^2-7x-2 divided by 8x^3+2x^2+4x+1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no thats wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(4x^2-7x-2)/(8x^3+2x^2+4x+1) ?????????????????????????????

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes thats the problem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it was 2x^2 instead of x^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

degree of denominator is bigger than degree of numerator. what are you supposed to divide? maybe factor and cancel?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[4x^2-7x-2 / 8x^3+2x^2+4x+1 \] (4x-8) / (8x^2 + 4) (x - 2) / (2x^2 + 1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if it is safe to say that is wrong do not say it .. thanks the answer is x-2/(2x^2+1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

corec has it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

here is another one 20x+20 divided by 6x+30 times 2x+10 divided by 4x^2-4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

denominator is \[(4x+1)(2x^2+1)\] numerator is \[(4x+1)(x-2)\] who gives these problems?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my math lab

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{5}{3x-3}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

everything in site factors.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sight too

OpenStudy (anonymous):

clear how to factor them both?
