Question

operations with polynomials:

x^-2*y over X4*y^-1

Answer 1

\[\frac{ x ^{-2} }{ x ^{4}y ^{-1} }\] this is what you wrote but we need to re-write this can you see why?

Answer 2

is sort of like that only youre missing a y in the top of the fraction
\[\frac{ x^-2y }{ x^4y^-1 }\]

Answer 3

is like the fraction above the one i just wrote

Answer 4

well, you're actually dividing two polynomials so you need to subtract the exponents

Answer 5

yeah i just dont know how to solve it i know youre supposed to subtract the exponents i just dont know where should they be placed

Answer 6

Take a look at this.
