So for the first part of Part 1, would this be right? x^4 = x * x * x * x x^2 = x * x x^4 / x^2 = x^2

Parth (parthkohli):

But it is asking to simplify without writing the expanded form.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats the second part. the first part says to show the expanded form and simplication of it...

Parth (parthkohli):

Both of them are in the first part hehe

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha well I meant the second part of the first part... If that makes any sense :P

Parth (parthkohli):

OK, do the second part of the second part then.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

? There is no part 2 of part 2... only part 2 of part 1. :P

Parth (parthkohli):

Damn, whatever it is! :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha okay, so for the second part of the first part, all you would need to do is subtract x^2 from x^4, leaving you with x^2. Right?

Parth (parthkohli):

Yeah!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, so do I have ALL of part one correct?

Parth (parthkohli):

Yes, you do.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yaay! Gimme just a sec to write all of that down. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait, would part one of part one be \[\frac{ 1 }{ x2}\]?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ParthKohli

Parth (parthkohli):

No.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay, it would just be x^2?

Parth (parthkohli):

yup.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Gracias :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

How does this look/sound for part 1?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ParthKohli

Parth (parthkohli):

Yeah, that is perfect.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, great thanks!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now for part 2......

Parth (parthkohli):

You can do that on your own, can you not?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think so. How does this sound? (below)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Simplify \[\frac{ y^6 }{ y^3 }\] y^6 = y * y * y * y * y * y y^3 = y * y * y Simplified it equals, y^3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ParthKohli

Parth (parthkohli):

yes, nothing wrong with it!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, hows to finished product look?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ParthKohli

Parth (parthkohli):

you mean 6 - 3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, typo :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@ParthKohli

Parth (parthkohli):

yeah, it's right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Muchas Gracias, kind Senor!

Parth (parthkohli):
