Answer 2

Are you sure, you don't have the numerator and denominator backwards?

nope messed up question

Answer 4

What lesson are you on in pre-cal?

nope advanced function

wow all the names lemme down no hero, no larange, no amistre, no saifoo

Answer 8

my bad hero was here

Answer 9

According to my calculator, the remainder is just 7x+5, but don't quote me on that

Answer 10

Actually, it makes sense now that I think about it

Answer 11

You can't do anything else with that. If you were doing a regular polynomial where you could divide and you got a remainder, it would be the remainder over the divisor, where the remainder is in the numerator and the divisor is in the denominator.

Answer 12

lol this wasnt the question but this is what it boiled down to so i wrote 7x-5 as answer, but i didnt know that it could also be called on as remainder, i think i got it right

Answer 13

Hmmm, okay. I hope it is right for your sake.

Answer 14

Answer 18

lol

Answer 19

Answer 24

zarkon is typing a reply...
been waiting for this

Answer 25

the degree on the bottom is larger...I would say 7x-5

Answer 26

ok thnkx

Answer 27

lets imagine x = 10
then it is like asking for the remainder when you divide
\[\frac{65}{108}\]

Answer 28

zarkon is there anyplace u are more availible other than openstudy, i find u are the only one who can usually help me with contest questions..

Answer 29

since the denominator is greater than the numerator, the remainder is just the numerator.
