Example Questions
Example Question #571 : Intermediate Single Variable Algebra
Subtract:
First let us find a common denominator as follows:
Now we can subtract the numerators which gives us :
So the final answer is
Example Question #62 : Solving Rational Expressions
Simplify:
None of the above
Factor both the numerator and the denominator which gives us the following:
After cancelling we get
Example Question #2 : Multiplication And Division
Simplify the following:
We are dividing the polynomial by a monomial. In essence, we are dividing each term of the polynomial by the monomial. First I like to re-write this expression as a fraction. So,
So now we see the three terms to be divided on top. We will divide each term by the monomial on the bottom. To show this better, we can rewrite the equation.
Now we must remember the rule for dividing variable exponents. The rule is So, we can use this rule and apply it to our expression above. Then,
Example Question #21 : Intermediate Single Variable Algebra
Divide:
First, rewrite this problem so that the missing term is replaced by
Divide the leading coefficients:
, the first term of the quotient
Multiply this term by the divisor, and subtract the product from the dividend:
Repeat this process with each difference:
, the second term of the quotient
One more time:
, the third term of the quotient
, the remainder
The quotient is and the remainder is ; this can be rewritten as a quotient of
Example Question #2 : Dividing Polynomials
Divide:
Divide the leading coefficients to get the first term of the quotient:
, the first term of the quotient
Multiply this term by the divisor, and subtract the product from the dividend:
Repeat these steps with the differences until the difference is an integer. As it turns out, we need to repeat only once:
, the second term of the quotient
, the remainder
Putting it all together, the quotient can be written as .
Example Question #22 : How To Divide Polynomials
Divide the polynomials:
In order to divide these polynomials, we will need to factorize both the top and the bottom expressions.
Cancel out the common terms in the numerator and denominator.
The answer is:
Example Question #82 : Variables
Divide the polynomials and .
Write an expression to divide the polynomials.
Both polynomials can be factorized.
The numerator will be simplified to .
The denominator cannot be factorized as is. Pull a common factor of two in the denominator.
The term can be factorized to .
We can now rewrite the fraction.
The common terms in the numerator and denominator can be cancelled.
Distribute the two in the denominator through both terms in the binomial.
The answer is:
Example Question #82 : Variables
Expand:
Distribute through every term in the parentheses.
This gives us the following:
Example Question #1 : How To Multiply Polynomials
Multiply:
First multiply each of the terms inside the second parentheses by :
Next multiply each of the terms inside the second parentheses by :
Finally multiply each of the terms inside the second parentheses by 5:
By combining all like terms we get the correct answer:
Example Question #21 : Polynomial Operations
Expand:
The first step is to distribute the first term in the binomial across the trinomial:
Then multiply the second term in the binomial across the same trinomial:
You can then combine like terms to reach a simplified answer:
