Question

Bytelearn · Accepted Answer

Identify expressions to multiply: Identify the expressions to be multiplied. We have two fractions to multiply: j^2/(4j + 1) and (9j^2 - 6j + 1)/(2j - 1).Multiply numerators and denominators: Multiply the numerators and the denominators. The product of the two fractions is (j^2 * (9j^2 - 6j + 1)) / ((4j + 1) * (2j - 1)).Expand numerators and denominators: Expand the numerators and the denominators. We need to multiply j^2 with each term in the second numerator and (4j + 1) with each term in the second denominator. Numerator: j^2 * 9j^2 - j^2 * 6j + j^2 * 1 Denominator: (4j + 1) * (2j - 1)Perform multiplication in numerator: Perform the multiplication in the numerator. Numerator becomes: 9j^4 - 6j^3 + j^2Perform multiplication in denominator: Perform the multiplication in the denominator using the FOIL method (First, Outer, Inner, Last). Denominator becomes: (4j * 2j) + (4j * -1) + (1 * 2j) + (1 * -1)Simplify the denominator: Simplify the denominator. Denominator becomes: 8j^2 - 4j + 2j - 1Combine like terms in denominator: Combine like terms in the denominator. Denominator becomes: 8j^2 - 2j - 1Write simplified product: Write the simplified product of the two fractions. The product is (9j^4 - 6j^3 + j^2) / (8j^2 - 2j - 1).Check for common factors: Check for any common factors that can be canceled out. There are no common factors between the numerator and the denominator that can be canceled out.
