Solution Summary

This provides an example of working with exponents, solving radical equations, solving quadratic equations, and FOIL.

Solution Preview

1. when dividing powers with the same base, just subtract the exponents, so d^7/d^13 = d^{7 - 13} = d^{-6}

2. this implies x^2 = 3, so x = sqrt(3) or x = -- sqrt(3); and these are the same as the intercepts of f(x) = 5x^2 - 15

3. I'll ...
