Question

~~~GIVING OUT A MEDAL AND FANNING WHOEVER HELPS THANK YOU!!!~~~
Simplify completely: the quantity 6 times x to the 4th power plus 9 times x to the 2nd power plus 12 times x all over 3 times x

2x3 + 9x2 + 12

2x2 + 3x + 4

2x5 + 3x3 + 4x2

2x3 + 3x + 4

Answer 1

6x^4+9x^2+12x/3x

Answer 2

then you would use 3x to divide all of the integers in the numerator by the quantity of 3x

(ex: 12x/3x=4)

Answer 3

But i think whats confusing me is the exponents i dont know what to do with them @Jamierox4ev3r

Answer 4

hint: 9x^2 divided by 3x= 3x

Answer 5

based from that, can you figure out the rest?

Answer 6

@HelloGoodmorning

Answer 7

But what about the exponent @Jamierox4ev3r

Answer 8

6^4/3x=2x^3

Answer 9

Ok so did you subtract the exponent like 6^4/3^1=2^3

Answer 10

@Jamierox4ev3r

Answer 11

well, when you divide, one exponenent is automatically cancelled out

Answer 12

so your final answer would be 2x^3+3x+4

Answer 13

Ohh

Answer 14

Thank you ^_^

Answer 15

no problem ;)
