i will medal and fan you!
1.(–10x3 + 30x – 20) ÷ (–5x + 5)
2.(8m7 – 10m5) ÷ 2m3
3.(–6m9 – 6m8 – 16m6) ÷ (2m3)
these kinds of questions confuse the heck out of me please help and explain(:

is ur first question? .(–10x3 + 30x – 20) ÷ (–5x + 5) or else .(–10x2 + 30x – 20) ÷ (–5x + 5)?

these are the questions. sorry i wrote them down wrong:
(-10x^3+30x-20) / -5x+5
(8m^7 – 10m^5) ÷ 2m^3
(–6m^9 – 6m^8 – 16m^6) ÷ (2m^3)
OpenStudy (ajprincess):
Let us try to do the first question.
Can u factorise (-10x^3+30x-20)?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no you cant

\(-10x^3+30x-20=-10x^3+3*10x-2*10\)
do u see anything common to all three terms?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
10
OpenStudy (ajprincess):
right:) when u factor it out what remains?
OpenStudy (anonymous):

\(-10x^3+3*10x-2*10=10(-x^3+3x-2)\)
getting it?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah i get that
OpenStudy (ajprincess):
good:)
Can u factorise -5x+5?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
-5(x+1)
OpenStudy (ajprincess):
-5x+5=-5(x-1)

oh ok
OpenStudy (ajprincess):
\[\frac{ -10x^3+30x-20 }{ -5x+5 }=\frac{ -10(x^3-3x+2) }{ -5(x-1) }=\frac{ -5*2( x^3-3x+2) }{ -5(x-1) }\]
do u see anything common in both denominator and numerator?
