I’m not sure how to parse "1/4x8x-12" — there are a few possible interpretations. Here are the common ones and their simplifications; tell me which you meant.
1) If you meant (1/4)·8·x − 12:
- (1/4)·8·x − 12 = 2x − 12
2) If you meant (1/4)·x·8·x − 12 (i.e., (1/4)·8·x^2 − 12):
- (1/4)·8·x^2 − 12 = 2x^2 − 12
3) If you meant (1/4)x^8 x − 12 (i.e., (1/4)·x^9 − 12):
- (1/4)x^9 − 12
4) If you meant a single fraction 1/(4x8x − 12) or 1/(4x^8 x − 12), please rewrite with parentheses or exponents and I’ll simplify/evaluate.
Which of these matches what you intended?
