Part 1: Show the expanded form and simplification of x^6/x^2. Explain in your own words how you can simplify x^6/x^2 without having to write the expanded form.
@RadEn @sachinrajsharma
because the base is same, just subtract the power of both
x^4 ?
exactly, yep!
x^6 ---- = x^(6-2) =x^4 x^2
what is the expanded form?
Part 1: x^6/x^2=x^(6-2)=x^4 When you divide monomials, you actually subtract their powers. Remember that division is related to subtraction.
the expanding form mean : for x^6 = x * x * x * x * x * x for x^4 = x * x * x * x
Show the expanded form and simplification of X^6/X^2 . Explain in your own words how you can simplify X^6/X^2 without having to write the expanded form. Part 2: Create your own fraction with like bases, coefficients, and show its simplification. I don't need to know how to simplify it i just need the answers of the questions... thanks oh and best answer gets 10 points....lol Answer Part 1: x^6/x^2=x^(6-2)=x^4 When you divide monomials, you actually subtract their powers. Remember that division is related to subtraction. Part 2: y^3/x^3y =y^2/x^3
Did that help?
so, without do cancel out the same terms we can simplify it by the property exponent, just subtract their powers.
Thank you to both of you... I would like to give both of you medals .... i will give a medal to @RadEn and I will write thanks to @godgavemeyou (comment) and you will get a medal too
