I can help with spanish, plus If I need any extra help myself, I know a real spanish speaker and can ask my teacher. I am very good at spanish though.

I could help with math! I get good grades in it! I got a 100 on my test last week!

But I need some help on science!

[wyatt061]

I can't wait to help out.

You divide by the greatest common factors between the 2 terms.

She explained it nicely...

Look at the first ( ) on the left. You need to find the largest number that both 15 and 12 can be divided by (so, 3). Next, you look at the exponents, all you do for them is subtract the smallest from the largest. (3-2=1) For your answer you take the 3^2 that you took out and stick it in front of the parenthese (3^2 does not go in parenthese).


And also here's an explanation from me...

(15y^3 + 12y^2)

So you have 15 and 12. Divide them both by 3.

Then you have y^3 and y^2, and you will divide both by y^2.

You have now taken out 3 and y^2, and after dividing them, you're left with (5y+4). Since you divided the terms by 3y^2, put it on the outside of the parentheses to show the multiplication.
3y^2 times (5y+4) equals your original (15y^3 + 12y^2).




A person has asked this question and it was figured for her but she still does not understand the factoring involved in factoring completely. Is there anyone that can clarify this any better than the above right answer so she can understand it? She has posted it as ASAP now. Thanks.


The other problem is:

x^4 - 6x^3 + 6x - 36 answer (x^3 + 6)(x - 6)
