Factorizing polynomials Help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

here is the question same question @kool_22

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry same question

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@lol3232 @Awolflover1 @Vivek3461

OpenStudy (anonymous):

those are t's not plus signs by the way

Awolflover1 (awolflover1):

Hmm

OpenStudy (vivek3461):

Its simplification i guess, not factorizing

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok can you help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@StudyGurl14 @SolomonZelman

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@geniousmind13 I think they are plus signs tag the other girl

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Lilblister

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it looks like she is offline

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what do we do just solve it and then tell her how to do it when she comes back or just let it go?

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

\(\Large\frac{r^2s^4t}{r^2st^4}\) First off, the \(r^2\) cancel out.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

Rules of exponents: \(\huge\frac{x^n}{x^m}=x^{n-m}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok what next?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@geniousmind13 we should tell her how to solve it when we have the answer we will put it in her q

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok sounds great @kool_22

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

Use the rule.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how? that is what we don't get? @StudyGurl14

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you get how to use the rule @kool_22

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hold on give me 5 mins brb

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

the rs cancel out to get \(\Large\frac{s^4t}{st^4}\) Using the rule, you get... \(\Large s^{4-1}t^{1-4}\) Simplify

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would bring it to s^3t^-3?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

gatta go bye

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nevermind don't have to leave for an hr and a half

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@StudyGurl14 was i right on the simplification?

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

yep. but the t^-3 would turn into 1/t^3, so... \(\Large\frac{s^3}{t^3}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thank you for your help :):):):):):):):)
