Simplify:

That will simplify down to \[\frac{ 9x^2 }{ x }\] which then simplify's to what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

9x??

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

Yes. :).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yay one more?? c:

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

If it is just on this post only 1 more k?

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

As we do not want long posts.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay just one more and that's it.

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

On this post yes :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

Ok so, first it simplifys to (3/c)^-2 which then turns into (3/c) * (3/c). So what does (3/c) * (3/c) transfer into or simplify into?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c^2 * 9 i believe ;-;

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or c^2/9

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

No, \[\frac{ 3 * 3 }{ ? * ? } \]

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

What goes on the denominator?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm really bad at things, sorry. 9/c^2?

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

No i just gave you the next part, What would go on the denominator, it is pretty simple :-)

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

so you say 9/c^2 goes on the denominator, No, remove the 9/ and the ^2, what is left is one piece that goes below, double the piece and there you go what is left will be ? * ?

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

By double i mean split into 2.

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

Hello?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's c I'm here sorry

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

Yes there you go how many c's go on the bottom -> ? * ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

Yes.

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

What does ? * ? turn into now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c * c

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

Yes there you go, so, \[\frac{ 3 * 3 }{ c * c }\] which simplifys into what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

9/c^2

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

Oh i see what you were doing, Were you already simplifying it to the final answer?

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

That was correct but i was trying to get you to complete the fraction. So good job on getting that if you already knew what the fraction was :)!

DivineSolar (divinesolar):

Hope i helped :)!

Thanks you did a lot. :D
