Question

hi there..
how to solve these?

Answer 1

the Letter C..

Answer 2

If you can factor the denominator, maybe...

Answer 3

oh, gosh! :(

Answer 4

```
\[\frac{x^4+x^3-5x^2-14x-1}{x^5-x^4+4x^3-4x^2+4x-4}\]
```
\[\frac{x^4+x^3-5x^2-14x-1}{x^5-x^4+4x^3-4x^2+4x-4}\]

Answer 5

I don't know how you're meant to factor those, but wolfie says
\[\Large (x-1)(x^2+2)^2\]

Answer 6

eh? how wolfie get that?

Answer 7

\[x^4(x-1)+4x^2(x-1)+4(x-1)\]

Answer 8

how??

Answer 9

now factor x-1

Answer 10

It's called factoring by grouping -.-'

Answer 11

@Fifciol .. ahh.. got it. :) use synthetic division??

Answer 12

lets look at the denominator first

\[x^5-x^4+4x^3-4x^2+4x-4\]

lefts factor the four out

\[x^5-x^4+4(x^3-x^2+x-1)\]


now lets look at this term

\[x^3-x^2+x-1\]

Answer 13

*lets

Answer 14

\[x^3-x^2+x-1\]

we can try polynomial long division long division
