Question

(x-4)/(5x^4-3x^3+6x^2-x+12)

MUST BE SOLVED WITH POLYNOMIAL LONG DIVISION

Answer 1

not sure what you mean, since the denominator is bigger degree than numerator. you can either factor and cancel, or you can do nothing.

Answer 2

I set it up like you would normally, not how the problem is shown, sorry =[

Answer 3

luke - do you small one divided into big one?

Answer 4

It truly is 5x^4.... divided by x-4, but I set it up already.

Answer 5

if so it should be flipped over

Answer 6

Here is how it is written: 5x^4-3x^3+6x^2-x+12/x-4

Answer 7

5x^3 + 17x^2+ 74x + 295
------------------------
x-4 )5x^4- 3x^3 +6x^2 - x +12
5x^4 -20x^3
-----------
17x^3 + 6x^2
17x^3 - 68x^2
------------
+74x^2 - x
74x^2 - 296x
------------
295x + 12
295x - 1180
----------
1192

5x^3 + 17x^2+ 74x + 295 remainder 1192

Answer 8

Can you explain the steps? =[

Answer 9

wow very nice. it is extremely hard to write a long division problem here

Answer 10

ok first you divide 5x^4 by x (the x in x-4) giving 5x^3
then multiply x-4 by 5x^3 to give 5x^4 - 20x^3
subtract this from 5x^4- 3x^3 to give 17x^3
and then bring down the +6x^2
now divide x into 17x^3 giving 17x^2 and carry on as in line 2
