Question

helpppp meeee :)
88x^3-16x^2+8x-11/8x

Answer 1

i think you could factor x out first

Answer 2

yea but then what ---ugh

Answer 3

then its just a trinomial right? you could do complex trinomials, quadratics or simple trinomials.

Answer 4

What do the directions say to do with this?

Answer 5

Is the problem\[\frac{88x^3-16x^2+8x-11}{8x}=11x^2-2x+1-\frac{11}{8x}\]

Answer 6

i am so stupid...i just dont get it!! ugh

Answer 7

animal love u!!!

Answer 8

No sweat. Do math every day.

Answer 9

math great...algebra not so great!!
lol

Answer 10

nothing is jumping out at me but stress

Answer 11

Note that if you write the problem down correctly, the answer just about jumps out at you.

Answer 12

Stay after it....

Answer 13

so now I can cancel the 8x out and left with 11x^2-2x-10 ?

Answer 14

Not exactly. The last term has no way to divide by 8x, so the denominator stays. Let me write it a little differently to give you a better view of it.

Answer 15

\[\frac{88x^3-16x^2+8x-11}{8x}=\frac{88x^3}{8x}+\frac{-16x^2}{8x}+\frac{8x}{8x}+\frac{-11}{8x}=11x^2-2x+1-\frac{11}{8x}\]

Answer 16

Does that help you see it?

Answer 17

so I am basically factoring an 8x out?

Answer 18

Exactly, except the last term.

Answer 19

aaaahhhh yes

Answer 20

Hope I was helpful.

Answer 21

yes u were!!!! wanna help me with another!!???

Answer 22

Sure, what else would I do? lol

Answer 23

i wish i had a good grasp @ algebra.... ugh

Answer 24

Not impossible. Just stay after it.

Answer 25

I try... ok here goes.... 21x^3-10x^2+32x
48/7x+6

Answer 26

Confirm the question. I think you left out an addition sign. Is it\[\frac{21x^3-10x^2+32x 48}{7x+6}\]

Answer 27

+48

Answer 28

see not good @ this lol

Answer 29

Of course... I figured that out, then didn't fix it when I typed.... This one will need long division.

Answer 30

I can do this problem, and even tell you how to do it, but I'm not very good at the draw function to show you the work. The structure of the problem exceeds my computer skill. Let me find a tutorial that will show you how. Wait a sec.....

Answer 31

thanks so so much
this bites lol
