Question

a ) \(\frac{x^4-xy^3}{2xy+y^2}:\frac{x^3+x^2y+xy^2}{2x+y}\)

Answer 1

\(\frac{x^4-xy^3}{2xy+y^2}:\frac{x^3+x^2y+xy^2}{2x+y}\)

\(=\frac{x\left(x^3-y^3\right)}{y\left(2x+y\right)}.\frac{2x+y}{x^3+x^2y+xy^2}\)

\(=\frac{x\left(x-y\right)\left(x^2+xy+y^2\right)\left(2x+y\right)}{xy\left(2x+y\right)\left(x^2+xy+y^2\right)}\)

\(=\frac{x-y}{y}\)

 

Answer 2

\(\frac{x^4-xy^3}{2xy+y^2}:\frac{x^3+x^2y+xy^2}{2x+y}\)
\(=\frac{x\left(x^3-y^3\right)}{y\left(2x+y\right)}:\frac{x\left(x^2+xy+y^2\right)}{2x+y}\)
\(=\frac{x\left(x-y\right)\left(x^2+xy+y^2\right)}{y\left(2x+y\right)}:\frac{x\left(x^2+xy+y^2\right)}{2x+y}\)
\(=\frac{x\left(x-y\right)\left(x^2+xy+y^2\right)}{y\left(2x+y\right)}.\frac{2x+y}{x\left(x^2+xy+y^2\right)}\)
\(=\frac{x-y}{y}\)
