simplify (144x^4)/((-12x^2))

simplify

\frac{144 x ^{4}}{( - 12 x ^{2} )}

- 12 x^{2}

Solution steps

\frac{144 x ^{4}}{- 12 x ^{2}}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{a}{- b} = - \frac{a}{b}

= - \frac{144 x ^{4}}{12 x ^{2}}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{144}{12} = 12

= \frac{12 x ^{4}}{x ^{2}}

Apply exponent rule:

\frac{x ^{a}}{x ^{b}} = x^{a - b}

\frac{x ^{4}}{x ^{2}} = x^{4 - 2}

= 12 x^{4 - 2}

Subtract the numbers:

4 - 2 = 2

= - 12 x^{2}

- (x^{2} - 4 x)^{3}

x^{3} - 7 x^{2} + 20 x - 50

x^{4} (2 x)^{3}

(2 a^{x} - b^{x}) (a - b)

(\frac{6 x ^{5} + 1}{2 y ^{2}})^{2}
