but i do not understand any of that
do you agree that when you multiply two exponential expressions, such as x^2 and x^3, you add the exponents? x^2 times x^3 = x^(2+3) = x^5 agreed? or no?
agreed but i don't understand where ur going with that
well we use that idea to figure out what goes in the blank x^3 times _______ = x^6 just try to think in reverse of the last example
so the answer would be x^3
x^3 times x^3 = x^6, yes
so this means x^3 times 2x^3 = 2x^6
ok
you'll write 2x^3 over the x^3 term in the dividend
\[\frac{2 x^6-9 x^5+4 x^2-5}{x^3-5}=2 x^3-9 x^2+10+\frac{45-41 x^2}{x^3-5}\]
so its either \[2x^3-9x^3+4x-5 \] or \[2x^3-9x^2+10\] i thank its the second one but I'm not 100% sure
@jim_thompson5910
am i right
From Mathematica:\[\text{Together}\left[2 x^3-9 x^2+\frac{45-41 x^2}{x^3-5}+10\right] \]\[\frac{2 x^6-9 x^5+4 x^2-5}{x^3-5} \]
2x^3-9x^2+10 is correct
so is the answer \[2x^3-9x^2+10\]
yay thank you
yes
