SOLUTION: divide: 4x^-2x-2/x-1

Question 541042: divide: 4x^-2x-2/x-1
Answer by oberobic(2304) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
(4x^-2x-2)/(x-1) = (2*(2x^2-x-1))/(x-1) = (2*(x-1)*(2x+1))/(x-1)
.
The (x-1) terms cancel.
.
2*(2x+1)
.
That is a simplification of the expression.
.
To take the answer further would require an equation.
.
To illustrate, if we assume:
.
y =(4x^-2x-2)/(x-1)
.
Then we can graph it.
