How To: Factor out when doing rational expressions in algebra

This video shows the method to simplify rational expressions. The example used in the video is multiple of 4 and x square plus multiple of 4 and x plus 1 or (4x^2 + 4x + 1)/(2x^3 + 11x^2 + 5x). As the first and last term is a perfect square we get the simplified numerator as (2x + 1)(2x + 1). Next, the denominator is simplified. Taking the common factor out we get x(2x^2 + 11x + 5). Now we factorize 2x^2 + 11x + 5. We get (2x + 1)(x + 5 ). Now, writing the terms in numerator and denominator w...

How To: Find the equation of a perpendicular line easily

In this video the instructor shows how to find out an equation of a perpendicular line. If you need to find the equation of a line passing through the given point and is perpendicular to another line, the first thing you need to do is compute the slope of the given line. Obtain the slope of the equation by writing it in the form of y = mx + b. Now the product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is a negative one.
