Step-by-step explanation:

the ratio is 1:3:5, so we are talking about 1+3+5 = 9 parts or shares between them.

therefore, 1 share of 450,000 is

450,000/9 = 50,000

so, Anna gets R50,000.

Letty gets 3×50,000 = R150,000.

and finally Emily gets 5×50,000 = R250,000.

24x^5-8x^4+12x^3-4x^2 / 4x^2

Margaret [11]

Answer:

The detailed process of simplification is :

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{24x^{5} - 8x^{4} + 12x^{3} - 4x^{2} }{4x^{2} }$

= $\frac{24x^{5} }{4x^{2} }$ - $\frac{8x^{4} }{4x^{2} }$ + $\frac{12x^{3} }{4x^{2} }$ - $\frac{4x^{2} }{4x^{2} }$ ..........................separate the terms

= 6 $x^{5-2}$ - 2 $x^{4-2}$ + 3 $x^{3-2}$ - 1 ................ subtract the power of x from denominator

= 6 $x^{3}$ - 2 $x^{2}$ + 3 $x$ -1

= 2 $x^{2}$ ( 3 $x$ -1 ) + (3 $x$ -1 )................................... Take (3 $x$ -1 ) common in (6 $x^{3}$ - 2 $x^{2}$ )

= (3 $x$ -1 ) (2 $x^{2}$ +1) .......................................Take (3 $x$ -1 ) common in whole equation
