NEED HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[-2M^2+8 \div 7m^3 - 11m^2 - 4m + 5\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry, but this beyond me... sorry I can't help you here. :[

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wait... you can combine like terms. Yeah!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2m^2 - 11m^2 = -13m^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

8+5 = 13

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh sorry i forgot to put =0 at the end maybe that helps

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-13m^2+13/7m^3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh wait, so is it graphing?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well it says solve the relationship

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, that's pretty vague... Solve the relationship... hmm..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have no idea.. Sorry, Cherry. :/ I have failed you! D:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it's okay thanx anyway :)

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

\[-2m^2+8 \div 7m^3 - 11m^2 - 4m + 5\]this is given right? @cherry1239

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

WAIT!

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

\[\frac{-2m^2+8 }{7m^3 - 11m^2 - 4m + 5}\]is it like this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

exactly !! :)

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Factor the numerator and denominator.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i factor the numerator and i got -2(m+2)(m-2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but i cant factor the denominator

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

I just found out that i can't factor the denominator as well.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol its a relation if that helps it hasa =0 at the end

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

\[\frac{-2m^2+8 }{7m^3 - 11m^2 - 4m + 5} = 0\]Like that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Let's make your life easier.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

\[\frac{-2m^2+8 }{7m^3 - 11m^2 - 4m + 5} = 0\]Cross multiply:\[{-2m^2+8 } = 0 \times[{7m^3 - 11m^2 - 4m + 5}]\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok can you help me solve it please

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Sure.

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

When anything multiplies with 0, you get 0.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Therefore you are left with: \[−2m^2+8 = 0\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so now i move the 8 to the right. right?

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

You can factor this and solve directly too.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so -2(m+8)(m-8)

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Dont forget =0

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2(m+8)(m-8)=0

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Wait. it wont be m+8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-2(m-8)(m-8)=0?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry im confused

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

\[−2m^ 2+8 = \color{red} {-2(n-2)(m+2)=0}\]

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

that's m* -2

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

did a typo.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so divide everything by 2 and im left with m=0 ?

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

No. lol.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no?
