Their a method call Kcf you keep 12/15 and change the division into multiple and filp 1/5 then you end up with 12/15 x 5/1 and multiple across which is 60/15 = 4 hope this helps

12/15÷1/5

when dividing fractions, all you have to do is multiply the first number by the second number's reciprocal
(reciprocal is denominator over numerator)

12/15÷1/5
12/15×5/1

remember when multiplying fractions it's the the two numerators multiplied together over the two denominators multiplied

12/15×5/1
60/15
4

The answer is 4

(-5z)³ as a positive exponent.

Sergio039 [100]

To write this expression as a positive exponent we use this rule of exponents: x^color(red)(a) = 1/x^color(red)(-a) 5^-3 = 1/5^(- -3) .

F/4 + 16 < 49<br> Solve the inequality

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

$f$ < $132$

Step-by-step explanation:

$Greetings!$

$I'm~Isabelle~Williams~and~I~will~be~answering~your~question!$

$Subtract~16~from~both~sides:$

$\frac{f}{4} +16-16$ < $49-16$

$Simplify:$

$\frac{f}{4}$ < $33$

$Now,~multiply~both~sides~by~4:$

$\frac{4f}{4}$ < $33\times4$

$f$ < $132$

$Hope~my~answer~helps!~Have~a~great~day~ahead!$

What is the completely factored form of f(x)=x^3-7x^2+2x+4

xxMikexx [17]

$Solution, \mathrm{Factor}\:x^3-7x^2+2x+4:\quad \left(x-1\right)\left(x^2-6x-4\right)$

$Steps:$

$x^3-7x^2+2x+4$

$Use\:the\:rational\:root\:theorem,\\a_0=4,\:\quad a_n=1,\\\mathrm{The\:dividers\:of\:}a_0:\quad 1,\:2,\:4,\:\quad \mathrm{The\:dividers\:of\:}a_n:\quad 1,\\\mathrm{Therefore,\:check\:the\:following\:rational\:numbers:\quad }\pm \frac{1,\:2,\:4}{1},\\\frac{1}{1}\mathrm{\:is\:a\:root\:of\:the\:expression,\:so\:factor\:out\:}x-1,\\\left(x-1\right)\frac{x^3-7x^2+2x+4}{x-1}$

$\frac{x^3-7x^2+2x+4}{x-1}$

$\mathrm{Divide}\:\frac{x^3-7x^2+2x+4}{x-1},\\\mathrm{Divide\:the\:leading\:coefficients\:of\:the\:numerator\:}x^3-7x^2+2x+4\mathrm{\:and\:the\:divisor\:}x-1\mathrm{\::\:}\frac{x^3}{x},\\\mathrm{Quotient}=x^2,\\\mathrm{Multiply\:}x-1\mathrm{\:by\:}x^2:\:x^3-x^2,\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}x^3-x^2\mathrm{\:from\:}x^3-7x^2+2x+4\mathrm{\:to\:get\:new\:remainder},\\\mathrm{Remainder}=-6x^2+2x+4,\\Therefore,\\\frac{x^3-7x^2+2x+4}{x-1}=x^2+\frac{-6x^2+2x+4}{x-1}$

$\mathrm{Divide}\:\frac{-6x^2+2x+4}{x-1},\\\mathrm{Divide\:the\:leading\:coefficients\:of\:the\:numerator\:}-6x^2+2x+4\mathrm{\:and\:the\:divisor\:}x-1\mathrm{\::\:}\frac{-6x^2}{x}=-6x,\\\mathrm{Quotient}=-6x,\\\mathrm{Multiply\:}x-1\mathrm{\:by\:}-6x:\:-6x^2+6x,\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}-6x^2+6x\mathrm{\:from\:}-6x^2+2x+4\mathrm{\:to\:get\:new\:remainder},\\\mathrm{Remainder}=-4x+4,\\\mathrm{Therefore},\\\frac{-6x^2+2x+4}{x-1}=-6x+\frac{-4x+4}{x-1}$

$\mathrm{Divide}\:\frac{-4x+4}{x-1},\\\mathrm{Divide\:the\:leading\:coefficients\:of\:the\:numerator\:}-4x+4\mathrm{\:and\:the\:divisor\:}x-1\mathrm{\::\:}\frac{-4x}{x}=-4,\\\mathrm{Quotient}=-4,\\\mathrm{Multiply\:}x-1\mathrm{\:by\:}-4:\:-4x+4,\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}-4x+4\mathrm{\:from\:}-4x+4\mathrm{\:to\:get\:new\:remainder},\\\mathrm{Remainder}=0,\\\mathrm{Therefore},\\\frac{-4x+4}{x-1}=-4$

$\mathrm{The\:Correct\:Answer\:is\:\left(x-1\right)\left(x^2-6x-4\right)}$

$\mathrm{Hope\:This\:Helps!!!}$
