@satellite73

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

coefficients are 5 -8 1 and since you are dividing by \(x-4\) you put \(4\) on the side

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@satellite73 oh thats simple enough thank you!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

kind of a weird question though why doesn't it just ask you to divide??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yw

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Hanna: Why not start out by presenting the problem itself instead of typing "help"? Also, forgive me for saying this, you don't really need to bribe people to help you by promising badges. Most of us answering questions are delighted to do so.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait its not: C?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no dear, it is not C

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@mathmale I usally NEVER do that but other people who were doing it tonight were getting answers and I had question on her for 24 hours and got not ONE answer so I closed it and said that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

when dividing by \(x-4\) you want to put a \(4\) on the side, not a \(-4\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is because you want to add and not subtract

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@satellite73 what about the -8?

OpenStudy (mathmale):

Hanna: Why not focus on the process of finding the "right answer" for yourself instead of tossing out possibilities ("wait, it's not c").

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A has the \(-8\) in it

OpenStudy (mathmale):

You can rise above what the others are doing when they just ask for answers. Forgive me for lecturing you. Good luck!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the coefficients are \[5,-8,1\] leave them alone

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i was saying that because of the - and I was asking why and she already knows this because we have worked togtehr before, thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you were dividing by \(x+3\) you would put \(-3\) on the side

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@satellite73 Oh duh! sorry read A wrong I guess! lol thank you for the help!
