Algebra 1, please help!
Part A: Divide (9x4y3 + 3x3y2 - 6x2y - 12x2y4) by -3x2y. Show your work, and justify each step. Part B: How would your answer in Part A be affected if the x2 variable in the denominator was just an x? Part C: What is the degree and classification of the polynomial you got in Part A?
do u go to connections?
no. i go to flvs. :)
oh ok
turtle whut whut whut
(9x4y3 + 3x3y2 - 6x2y - 12x2y4) by -3x2y I'm confused, so it's setup like this? \[(9x4y3+3x3y2-6x2y-12x2y4) \div -3x2y\] Or is it containing exponents (powers)?
lol @*amy*
Cause if it's like that, it's explicitly asking you for you to add like terms. Such as 9x, 3x, 6x, 12x; 4y, 3y, 2y, 2y; 3, 2, 4. Then to divide the variables -3x2y. Which, if that's how the problem is setup, I can walk you through it thoroughly, just please respond to let me know.
To combine like terms, not add. Sorry.
lol it's okay :) btw thanks for trying to help!
I am able to assist you, if that's what the problem is supposed to look like. Let me know if that's how it's supposed to look, and I can assist you.
okay. :)
@lola964 Is that what it's supposed to look like?
I forgot to add the exponents. sorry so the problems suppose to look like \[(9x^4y^3 + 3x^3y^2 - 6x^2y - 12x^2y^4) \div -3x^2y\]
Okay, so do you know how to combine like terms?
yeah.
Okay, so first off, combine like terms. Take the following and add them. Tell me what you get in result. \[9x^4+3x^3\] After you add those, and the exponents, go ahead and do the subtraction part with the base and exponents. \[6x^2-12x^2\] Let me know, what you conclude your answer to be.
Also, do you happen to have any choices/options as an answer?
I'm confused.. when I add \[9x^4 + 3x^3\] it comes out as the same problem..
