1 answer:

3 0

Answer: If there is a common factor, factor out the GCF. The first step in factoring any polynomial is to determine whether the terms of the polynomial have a greatest common factor. If yes, factor it out first.

Answer:

The answer to your question is: The second option

Step-by-step explanation:

Points A (3 , 7) B (5, 11)

slope = m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

m = (11 - 7) / (5 - 3)

m = 4 / 2 = 2

equation if the line

(y - y1) = m(x - x1)

(y - 7) = 2(x - 3) Answer

Answer:

$\frac{s}{2t}$

Step-by-step explanation:

When you have exponents above a like term and they are being multiplied together, you add them.

For example:

$a^{x} *a^{y} = a^{x + y}$

So let's group like terms in the numerator:

$4r^{3} r^{-5} s^{-2} s^{-1}t$ We can add terms like in the example.

$4 r^{-2} s^{-3} t$

Let's rearrange the denominator.

$8r^{-2} s^{-4} t^{2}$

Now we have:

$\frac{4r^{-2} s^{-3}t}{8 r^{-2} s^{-4} t^{2} }$ Cancel like terms

4/8 = 1/2

$r^{-2} /r^{-2}$ = 1 So it cancels

$s^{-3} / s^{-4} = s^{-1}$ = s Since s is raised to the -1 it goes on top and becomes s.

$t / t^{2} = 1/t$

Now we combine everything back together:

$\frac{s}{2t}$
