To rationalize, multiply numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator. For 3√5/(5√3 - 3√5), multiply by (5√3 + 3√5)/(5√3 + 3√5) to get (3√5)(5√3 + 3√5)/(25 - 45), simplifying to 5√3 + 3√5 .

If both '(x + 1)' and '(x - 1)' are factors of a polynomial, it implies the polynomial evaluates to zero at those x-values. Applying this, for ax³ + x² - 2x + b, setting x = 1 and x = -1 will help find a and b by solving the resulting equations, giving a = 2, b = -1 .

The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of the variable in the polynomial expression. For 7x³ + 2x² - x + 4, the highest power of x is 3, so the degree is 3 .

Simplifying involves combining like terms. Here, add: (5√2 + 3√2) gives 8√2, then subtract (2√2), resulting in 6√2 .

Factorizing a quadratic like x² - 81 involves recognizing it as a difference of squares: x² - 81 = (x + 9)(x - 9), where a² - b² = (a + b)(a - b).

To find the product of two binomials, apply the distributive property (FOIL method): First terms, Outer terms, Inner terms, Last terms. For (x + 2) and (x - 2), (x)(x) + (x)(-2) + (2)(x) + (2)(-2) = x² - 4 .

Yes, an integer can be a zero of a polynomial if substituting it into the polynomial yields zero. Determining zeros involves solving p(x) = 0. For example, a zero of 2x + 6 is x = -3 .

To convert 0.16 repeating to a fraction, let x = 0.161616..., then 100x = 16.1616... Subtracting these, 99x = 16, so x = 16/99 .

A decimal expansion is terminating if it can be expressed as a fraction whose denominator is a power of 10. It is non-terminating if it repeats indefinitely or doesn't repeat at all. For instance, the decimal expansion of 1/7 is non-terminating, repeating .

An irrational number is a number that cannot be expressed as a fraction of two integers, meaning its decimal form is non-terminating and non-repeating. An example is √2 .
