Question

Lots of points!! How do I solve 4-term equations like these:

(5x^3 + 3x^2 + 9x) / 9x^2

Answer 1

To solve 4-term equations like the one you've written, you need to simplify the expression and isolate the variable. Here are the steps you can follow:

Start by dividing all terms in the numerator by 9x^2:

(5x^3 + 3x^2 + 9x) / 9x^2 = (5/9)x + (3/9)x^(2-2) + (1/9)x^(3-2)

Simplify each term by combining like terms:

(5/9)x + (3/9)x^(2-2) + (1/9)x^(3-2) = (5/9)x + (3/9) + (1/9)x^(1)

The simplified expression is your answer:

(5/9)x + (3/9) + (1/9)x^(1) = (5/9)x + (3/9) + (1/9)x
