divide 12x^6+12x^5-18x^2 / 2x^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

divide each term separately to get your answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for example \[\frac{12x^6}{2x^2}=6x^4\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then the next would be 12^5 /2x^2 it would be 6x^3 right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

welll you'll ge this = \[6x ^{4}+6x ^{3}-9\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now do i add them together? also was i on the right path

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you cannot "add them together" because they are not like terms. you have the answer as it is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

don't try to combine them all in to one term
