Question

Hi: I need simplify (4x^2 - 12xy +9y^2) / (-12xy(2x - 3y))

Answer 1

(4x^2 - 12xy +9y^2) / (-12xy(2x - 3y))
let's start with factoring the top
(2x-3y)^2
so, we have
(2x-3y)^2 / (-12xy(2x - 3y))
one set of the (2x-3y)'s up top cancel, making
(2x-3y) / (-12xy)
and that is it!

Answer 2

Thank you. Do you know a online algebric calculator (with show the steps) ?

Answer 3

no, I did this one myself. sorry. However, Wulframalpha.com might be able to help you some. Medal?

Answer 4

Hi: After is possible simplify 2x-3y / -12xy (dividing by 2) and transform to x - 3y/-6xy ?

Answer 5

no, because you'd have to have 3/2y, not just 3y. Remember the other term! (that's why i didn't do that in the first place)

I´m a newbie here. How I increase your profile with a medal?
