4장, 문제 89
In Exercises 89–94, the equation for f is given by the simplified expression that results after performing the indicated operation. Write the equation for f and then graph the function. 5x2/(x2−4) ⋅ (x2+4x+4)/(10x3)
검증된 단계별 안내1
Identify the given expression: \( \frac{5x^2}{x^2 - 4} \cdot \frac{x^2 + 4x + 4}{10x^3} \). Our goal is to multiply these two rational expressions and simplify the result.
Factor all polynomials where possible to simplify the expression. Note that \( x^2 - 4 \) is a difference of squares and factors as \( (x - 2)(x + 2) \). Also, \( x^2 + 4x + 4 \) is a perfect square trinomial and factors as \( (x + 2)^2 \).
Rewrite the expression with factored forms: \( \frac{5x^2}{(x - 2)(x + 2)} \cdot \frac{(x + 2)^2}{10x^3} \).
Multiply the numerators together and the denominators together: numerator \( = 5x^2 \cdot (x + 2)^2 \), denominator \( = (x - 2)(x + 2) \cdot 10x^3 \).
Simplify the expression by canceling common factors. For example, \( (x + 2) \) appears in both numerator and denominator, and powers of \( x \) can be reduced. After simplification, write the simplified expression for \( f(x) \).
