I strongly urge you to use parentheses here, to remove any ambiguity regarding which quantity is being divided by which quantity.  I'm assuming that you meant

(<span>x^2−x−12)/(2x^2)÷(x^2+x−6)/2x^3.  If that is correct, great.  If not, fix it!  Once correct, you can perform the divisions from left to right, beginning with (x^2-x-12)/2x^2.</span>

Hey there!

These are technically expressed as fraction. When you divide a fraction by another, you can replace the second fraction with its reciprocal and you can now multiply the fractions together instead. 

\frac{x^2-x-12}{2x^2} /  \frac{x^2+x-6}{2x^3}

\frac{x^2-x-12}{2x^2} * \frac{2x^3}{x^2+x-6}

Now, just multiply across the top and the bottom. You can first cancel out any terms that are repeated or similar. 

\frac{12}{2x^2} * \frac{2x^3}{-6}

\frac{2}{x} * \frac{1}{-1}

\frac{2}{-x}

Your answer will be \frac{2}{-x}. 

Hope this helped you out! :-)

The equation tan(55 degree) equals StartFraction 15 Over b EndFraction can be used to find the length of Line segment A C. Trian
kaheart [24]

The length of line segment BC is 10.5 inches.

Given that

The equation tan(55 degrees) equals 15/b, which can be used to find the length of Line segment AC.

Triangle ABC is shown.

Angle BCA is a right angle and angle BAC is 55 degrees.

The length of AC is b and the length of hypotenuse BC is 15 centimeters.

We have to determine

What is the length of Line segment AC?

According to the question

Triangle ABC is shown.

Angle BCA is a right angle and angle BAC is 55 degrees.

The length of AC is b and the length of hypotenuse BC is 15 centimeters.

Here, BC is not the hypotenuse of the right triangle ABC.

The length line segment AC is given by,

In triangle ABC

\rm Tan\theta = \dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}

Where \rm tan\theta = 55 degrees, Perpendicular = 15 and base is b.

Substitute all the value in the equation

\rm Tan\theta = \dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}\rm\\\\ Tan55= \dfrac{15}{b}\\\\b = \dfrac{15}{Tan55}\\\\b = \dfrac{15}{1.42}\\\\b = 10.5 \ inches

Hence, the length of line segment BC is 10.5 inches.
