Question

divide (20x^3-35x+18) divide (5x-5)... i dont get it

Answer 1

divide with?

Answer 2

do you mean \[(20x^{3}-35x+18)\div(5x-5)\]?

Answer 3

idk thats all the problem gives

Answer 4

its polynomial division

Answer 5

and no its to the 3rd

Answer 6

can you take a pic and attach the file?

Answer 7

ok... whats the keys for screenshot

Answer 8

i have no idea

Answer 9

ok its (20x^3-35x+18)/(5x-5)

Answer 10

so it's like the equation i typed up earlier?

Answer 11

yah but the 20 is to the 3rd

Answer 12

I wrote that... \[20x ^{3}\] or do you mean \[(20x)^{3}\]

Answer 13

20x to the third

Answer 14

the first or second one, because that makes a huge difference in the outcome of this problem. Twenty x to the third is exactly how you say both of the choices

Answer 15

first

Answer 16

okay, now we're getting somewhere. So, the equation is like this right now \[\frac{ (20x ^{3}-35x+18) }{ 5x-5 }\]
are you familiar with the concept of factoring?

Answer 17

yah

Answer 18

so, you now need to factor the top part of the equation. Before we go anyfurthur is this a multiple choice question or just a fill in the answer question?

Answer 19

multiple choice

Answer 20

choices?

Answer 21

4x^2-4x+3+(3/5x-5)

4x^2+4x-3+/(3/5x=5)

4x^2+4x-3-(3/x)

4x^2-4x+3-(3/5x-5)

Answer 22

okay...those are really weird choices. it cant be the second one since you can't divide by an equal sign, so that leaves the other three left

Answer 23

ok

Answer 24

so what you need to do is factor the top part of the equation

Answer 25

and due to process of elimination it probably isn't going to be D

Answer 26

ok

Answer 27

... hello?

Answer 28

yes? I thought you were factoring the top of the formula
