The difference of a number x and 2 can be written as x-2
is can be written as equal or =
This statement can be translated as x-2=7.
It is as simple as that!
Answer:
-xy^6 +2y -6
Step-by-step explanation:
(-6x^2 y^8+12xy^3-36xy^2)
-------------------------------------------
6xy^2
Divide each term by 6 in the numerator and denominator
(-6/6x^2 y^8+12/6xy^3-36/6xy^2)
-------------------------------------------
6/6xy^2
-x^2y^8 +2xy^3 -6xy^2
---------------------------------
xy^2
Divide each term by x in the numerator and denominator
-x^2/xy^8 +2x/xy^3 -6x/xy^2
---------------------------------
x/xy^2
-xy^8 +2y^3 -6y^2
---------------------------------
y^2
Divide each term by y^2 in the numerator and denominator
Remember when dividing, we subtract the exponents
-xy^8/y^2 +2y^3/y^2 -6y^2/y^2
---------------------------------
y^2 /y^2
-xy^6 +2y^1 -6
---------------------------------
1
-xy^6 +2y -6
