directrix · Answer

A. 1/x^3

directrix · Answer

Not B because x^2 / x^5 = 

x * x  / x * x* x * x * x =

x*x   ---> site is about to shut down -- will finish this later today

directrix · Answer

Maybe I can finish and if this site restarts or whatever, then let it be . It crashed big time last night with no notice.

Idk.. But if your willing to, I'm going to post 13 questions on yahoo answers. I just need them to be checked, I've already done them all I just want to make sure there correct?

anonymous · Answer

whoa the website is bugging out, I didn't send that last reply. hahaha

directrix · Answer

is it B?
======
Not B because x^2 / x^5 = 

x * x  / x * x* x * x * x =

[x/x   *   x/x]  /   x * x * x =

1 * 1  / x * x * x =

1/x^3.

The extra x terms are in the denominator.

Your answer goes with the following problem:

x^5/ x^2

directrix · Answer

I found it. I have questions about problem #2, #8, #10, and #11. Perhaps you left them incorrect for the Yahoo checker.

anonymous · Answer

Yeah, 2 is A, 8 is D, 10 is a and 11 is A. I found that out after I had already posted it :)
