I Need Help With My Math Homework
Posted: 10-11-04 00:58am

Well it's 65 problems, but I only need help with 6 of them. It's basic properties and reducing to lowest terms. If you see a number directly after a letter it's because square , the second third or forth power.

In my opinion erin's is right. Lauren's is not simplified enough, although she's close to being there.

Lauren, the part under the dotted line is the denominator. These are fractions.

(2x2-5)(2x2+5)
---------------------
(6x3+15x) - (4x2+10)

(2x2-5)(2x2+5)
---------------------
3x(2x2+5) - 2(2x2+5)

(2x2-5)(2x2+5)
---------------------
(3x-2)(2x2+5)

(2x2-5)
----------
(3x-2)

49.
1-9 a2

(3a-1)(3a-1)

-1(3a-1)(1+3a)
----------------
(3a-1)(3a-1)

-(1+3a)
----------
(3a-1)

(1-3a)
----------
(3a-1)

51.
y2-2y+1
--------------
3-2y-y2

(y-1)(y-1)
-------------
(3+y)(1-y)

(y-1)
-------
(3+y)




#57.
had to do it like this to show the spacing right.


Code:

28 x2-41x+15                   12 x2-41x+24
-------------------    -     ----------------
    7x-5                         3x-8

(4x-3)(7x-5)                       (4x-3)(3x-8)
------------------     -     ----------------------
(7x-5)                             (3x-8)

(4x-3) - (4x-3) = 0


but the answer to that one is 0.
