:
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction
3.1 Subtracting a fraction from a whole
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using x2 as the denominator :
2x2 - 5x (2x2 - 5x) • x2
2x2 - 5x = ———————— = ———————————————
1 x2
Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole
Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator
STEP
4
:
Pulling out like terms
4.1 Pull out like factors :
2x2 - 5x = x • (2x - 5)
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
4.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator
Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:
x • (2x-5) • x2 - (3) 2x4 - 5x3 - 3

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
5.1 Adding a whole to a fraction
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using x2 as the denominator :
2x 2x • x2
2x = —— = ———————
1 x2
Polynomial Roots Calculator :
5.2 Find roots (zeroes) of : F(x) = 2x4 - 5x3 - 3
Polynomial Roots Calculator is a set of methods aimed at finding values of x for which F(x)=0
Rational Roots Test is one of the above mentioned tools. It would only find Rational Roots that is numbers x which can be expressed as the quotient of two integers
