Answer:

c) -x^3 + x^2 - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: u (x) = x^5 - x^4 +x^2 and v(x) = -x^2

(u/v)(x) = u(x)/v(x)

Now plug in the given functions in the above formula, we get

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

We can factorize the numerator.

In x^5 - x^4 + x^2. the common factor is x^2, so we can take it out and write the remaining terms in the parenthesis.

= x^2 (x^3 - x^2 + 1) / - x^2

Now we gave x^2 both in the numerator and in the denominator, we can cancel it out.

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

When we dividing the numerator by -1, we get

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

Answer: c) -x^3 + x^2 - 1

Hope you will understand the concept.

Thank you.

Answer:

Option c is the correct answer. (u/v)(x) = (-x³ + x² - 1) is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two expressions:

u(x) =  x⁵ - x⁴ +x²

v(x) =  -x²

we have to find  (u/v)(x).

For this we have to divide these functions.

(u/v)(x) = (  x⁵ - x⁴ +x²) /( -x² )

Taking  -x² common from nominator.

(u/v)(x) =  -x²(-x³ + x² - 1) / ( -x²)

Simplify the equation.

(u/v)(x) = (-x³ + x² - 1)

So, option c is the correct answer.

What is the most logical first step in solving the equation x2+6x+9=10?
valentina_108 [34]
You need to make the right side = 0  
To do this  you subtract 10 from both sides of the equation:-

x^2 + 6x + 9 - 10 = 10 - 10
x^2 + 6x - 1 = 0
