To divide a polynomial by a monomial, we must break the polynomial (dividend or numerator) into the product of its factors. Then, simplify the common factors from the dividend or numerator and divisor or denominator.
Note: Final answers are usually written without any negative exponents.
Simplify the following: \dfrac{3 x^{5} + 4 x^{2}}{x}
Simplify the following: \dfrac{6 y^{3} - 15 y^{2} + 24y}{3y}
The triangle shown below has an area of 13n^3+11n^2+29n.
Find a simplified polynomial expression for its height.
When dividing a polynomial by a monomial, we divide each term of the polynomial by the monomial then simplify each individual fraction using the rules of exponents.
