Answer:

x^3-x^2+1

Step-by-step explanation:

u(x)=x^5-x^4+x^2

v(x)=-x^2

(u/v)(x) = (x^5-x^4+x^2) /x^2

           = (x^5/x^2) - (x^4 /x^2) +(x^2/x^2)

            = x^(5-2) - x ^(4-2)+ x ^(2-2)

            =x^3-x^2+1

Answer:

(u/v)(x)=-x^{3}+x^{2}-1

Step-by-step explanation:

The arithmetic operation of the two equations presented in this case can be solved as a division of polynomials.

We can write the problem as:

(u/v)(x)=\frac{u(x)}{v(x)} \\\\(u/v)(x)=\frac{x^5-x^4+x^2}{-x^2}

We need not to forget the negative in the denominator. Then we can factor the numerator as follows:

(u/v)(x)=\frac{(-x^2)(-x^3+x^2-1)}{(-x^2)}

Now we can easily spot the solution, and get there with the following steps:

(u/v)(x)=(\frac{-x^2}{-x^2}) (-x^3+x^2-1)\\\\(u/v)(x)=(1)(-x^3+x^2-1)

As I said earlier we need to remember that the negative will change the symbols in the equation once we factor the polynomial.

And like that we get to the answer:

(u/v)(x)=-x^{3}+x^{2}-1

daser333 [38]
I think it is: y=0.375x+3.125

a=(5-2)/(5- -3)=3/8=0.375

Find b

(5)=0.375(5)+b
(5)=1.875+b
5-1.875=b
b=3.125

Write an equation in slope intercept form (y=mx+b) for the graph below .
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

b would be 0

your slope is rise/run. up one and over three. up one and over three. so 1/3

write it as y=1/3x+0, or y=1/3x
