Ill give medal for good answer? Create a unique example of dividing a polynomial by a monomial and provide the simplified form. Explain, in complete sentences, the two ways used to simplify this expression and how you would check your quotient for accuracy.
well, giving a medal for a good answer is simply a means of thanking people, its not really a motivation towards blurbing out an answer tho
ok
if you let us know where it is in this that your having issues at, we could help.
otherwise the question is designed to get youto think for yourself
prettymuch the whole thing
Create a unique example of dividing a polynomial by a monomial and provide the simplified form. do you know the what a poly and a mono are? that would be a start Explain, in complete sentences, the two ways used to simplify this expression and how you would check your quotient for accuracy.
sort of it has to do with the number of exponents and variables right?
yes; moreso, its has to do with the number of terms in an equation (how many add and subtracts there are)
can u give me an example?
so, poly means many; and mono means 1 we want a many termed equation divided by a single termed equation to start out with
3x + 4y -7z = 9 is a poly; theres alot of addition and subtraction
ok
5abc is a mono in that there is absolutely no addition or subtraction going on
ok
so for this question; give me your favorite poly and your favorite mono :)
i guess a mono could be 7ab^2 + 5c - 4b^2?
i think its a mono
thats a poly; since there is alot of adding and subtracting going on between terms. but we can use it
ok and amono could be 6ab?
perfect :)
to create the division of poly/mono we just: \[\frac{ 7ab^2 + 5c - 4b^2}{6ab}\]
then it said i need the simplified form and then two ways used to simplifty
yeah, that part is a bit vague to me; the simplified form might be when we split the top and reduce tho ....
then a way that i would check my quotient for accuracy
dang dude how much u typing...
\[\frac{ 7ab^2 + 5c - 4b^2}{6ab}\to \ \frac{ 7ab^2}{6ab} + \frac{5c}{6ab} - \frac{4b^2}{6ab}\] \[\frac{ 7abb}{6ab} + \frac{5c}{6ab} - \frac{4bb}{6ab}\] \[\frac{ 7\cancel{a}b\cancel{b}}{6\cancel{a}\cancel{b}} + \frac{5c}{6ab} - \frac{4b\cancel{b}}{6a\cancel{b}}\] \[\frac{7b}{6} + \frac{5c}{6ab} - \frac{4b}{6a}\]
the latex coding is tedious, but makes it prettier :)
and the bottom one is the simplified version?
yes, with any luck I typed it up in order
except for 4/6 = 2/3
wait so whats the answer in typing not the latex?
but thats reducing, which might mean simplifying too
in typing its a mess ....
7b/6 + 5c/6ab -2a/3b maybe
the thing im doing the final product doesnt have any / in it though
it has answers like 2x^2y^3 + 3y
the issue here is that you have material to go by while I have to take a blind stab at it and hope for the best :)
that result there would depend on what they used for poly and mono
your results will differ
one possibility might be in that we do long division on it instead of splitting the numerator
can u help me on last part cause it says i need a way to check it?
latex again?
7b/6 + 5c/6ab -2b/3a -------------------- 6ab ) 7ab^2 +5c -4b^2 (7ab^2) ------------- 0+ 5c (5c) ----------- 0 - 4b^2 (-4b^2) --------- 0 so yeah, the results are the same
no, just trying to get the ascii in a sensible format lol
i think thats it for that question...
yep, to check you just multiply it back thru to see that it comes back to the original again
alright well thanks for the help :)
yw, and good luck
