Final answer:
To divide the expression (16x^6-12x^4+4x^2) by 4x^2, divide each term by 4x^2 separately and simplify.
Step-by-step explanation:
To divide the expression (16x^6-12x^4+4x^2) by 4x^2, we can divide each term by 4x^2 separately. This gives us:
(16x^6)/(4x^2) - (12x^4)/(4x^2) + (4x^2)/(4x^2)
Simplifying further:
4x^4 - 3x^2 + 1
