help pleasee

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c^2 -4c +4/ 12^3 + 30c^2 (division sign) c^2 -4/ 6c^4 + 15c^3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A. c (c-2) / c (c+2) b. 2 (c-2)/ c (c+2) c. 2(c+2) / c(c-2) d. c(C+2)/ 2(c-2)

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

is your expression this? \[\frac{ c ^{2}-4c+\frac{ 4 }{ 12 }c ^{3}+30c ^{2} }{ c ^{2}-\frac{ 4 }{ 6 }c ^{4}+15c ^{3} }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if you could tell me ow to do the division line on the equation thing i can type it out

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

please can you rewrite your expression using the editor?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do I make the line?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

you have click on the tab which is at bottom on the right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[c^2-4c+4/ 12c^3 + 30c^2 \div c^2 -4/ 6c^4+15c^3 \]

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

\[\frac{ c ^{2}-4c+\frac{ 4 }{ 12 }c ^{3} +30c ^{2}}{ c ^{2} }-\frac{ 4 }{ 6 }c ^{4}+15c ^{3}\] is that?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no i will post a picture

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

Ok! I have now I try!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

the firstratio can be rewritten as below:(1) \[\frac{ (c-2)^{2} }{ 6c ^{2}(2c+5) }\] whereas the secon ratio, namely the divisor, can be rewritten as below:(2) \[\frac{ (c-2) }{ 3c ^{3}(2c+5) }\] Now, we have to divide the expression (1) by the expression (2), i.e. we have to multiplicate the expression (1) by the inverse of expression (2), so we have: \[\frac{ (c-2)^{2} }{ 6c ^{2}(2c+15) }*\frac{ 3c ^{3}(2c+5) }{ (c-2) }\] after simplification, we can write: \[\frac{ c(c-2) }{ 2 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So would the answer be A?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

oops I haqve made an error: the secon expreession is:

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

\[\frac{ (c-2)(c+2) }{ 3c ^{3}(2c+5) }\]

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

so the final result is: \[\frac{ c(c-2) }{ 2(c+2) }\] so A.

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

@cookiimonster27 right answer is A.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Michele_Laino could you help with a couple more?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

Ok!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

cool give me one sec to post it
