can someone help me plz.. i feel stupid because im so confused
what do u need help on?
Whatcha need?
I was not good enough :( go ahead
you were great! @Ahmad , seriously, thank you.
Sorry @gabgurl , we're continuing a prior conversation. How can we help?
ok Simplify: the quantity 40 times a all over b squared minus 5 times b plus 4, end quantity all over the quantity 5 times a squared all over the quantity 2 times b minus 2, end quantity, end quantity. sorry
you are welcome @ybarrap, lol it seems this liitle missunderstand is very funny @gabgurl @ybarrap
lol (:
\[\frac{ \frac{ 40a }{ (b-1)(b-4) } }{ \frac{ 5a*a }{ 2(b-1) } }\]
okay so far @gabgurl
\[\huge \frac{\frac{40a}{(b^2-5)(b+4)}}{\frac{5a^2}{2(b-2)}}\] this?
yes except the -5 and b are together. and the 2 and the b but the rest is right
yup but the 2 and b r together
\[\huge \frac{\frac{40a}{(b^2-5b+4)}}{\frac{5a^2}{2b-2)}}\]
hmm may be I went too fast :P
yuppp thats right
$$\tt \frac{\dfrac{40a}{b^2-5b+4}}{\dfrac{5a^2}{(2b-2)}}$$
yes
\[\large \frac{40a}{b^2-5b+4}\cdot \frac{2b-2}{5a^2}\]\[\large \frac{8\cancel{40a}}{(b-4)\cancel{(b-1)}} \cdot \frac{2\cancel{(b-1)}}{a\cancel{5a^2}}\]
\[\large \frac{2(8)}{a(b-4)}\] simplify :)
thank yas (: now i understand......... thank u @Jhannybean
no problemo :) And thank you!
no problems (:
$$\tt \frac{\dfrac{40a}{b^2-5b+4}}{\dfrac{5a^2}{(2b-2)}}\\ =\frac{4a}{b^2-5b+4}\frac{2b-2}{5a^2}\\ =\frac{4a}{5a^2}\frac{2(b-1)}{(b-1)(b-4)}\\ =\frac{8}{5a}\frac{1}{b-4}$$
thank u!! (:
*all times 10
its 40a, not 4a.
you're right, that's why I said *all times 10.
oh i see :)
but still, multiplying by numerator and denominator by 10 wouldnt give you the right answer..... \[\large \frac{2(8)}{a(b-4)} = \frac{16}{a(b-4)} \]\[\large 10 \left(\frac{8}{5a(b-4)}\right) = \frac{80}{50a(b-4)} \]\[\large \frac{16}{a(b-4)}\ne \frac{80}{50a(b-4)}\]
yup thats wrong.. but the answer u got was right jhanny and thank u again(:
$$\tt \frac{\dfrac{40a}{b^2-5b+4}}{\dfrac{5a^2}{(2b-2)}}\\ =\frac{4a}{b^2-5b+4}\frac{2b-2}{5a^2}\\ =\frac{4a}{5a^2}\frac{2(b-1)}{(b-1)(b-4)}\\ =\frac{8}{5a}\frac{1}{b-4}\\ *Correction(should~ have ~started ~with ~40, ~not~ 4):\\ =\frac{10(8)}{5a}\frac{1}{b-4}\\ =\frac{2(8)}{a}\frac{1}{b-4}\\ $$
Good job :)
lol
