I need help with this question, I'm not sure where to start.

3x(4x-z)squared + 8xto the sixth y-x to the fifth yz + 3x to the forth yz
-x cubed y

the -x cubed y is under the underlined part only

I realize this is hard to understand I hope you can help me

Thanks
 
We do not know where to start either. What is it you need to do with that.

Try using ^ (SHIFT 6)for powers. That is what it's there for.

To learn how to format math textually, try here.

At a guess, the expression might be as follows:

. . . . .\(\displaystyle 3x(4x\, -\, z)^2\, +\, \frac{8x^6 y\, -\, x^5 yz\, +\, 3x^4 yz}{-x^3 y}\)

But what are the instructions? What are you supposed to do with this expression?

When you reply, please include a clear listing of your steps and reasoning so far, so we can "see" where you're getting stuck. Thank you! :D
 
that is the correct expression

As for what needs to be done, the question is study the operations and simplification of the algebraic expression given.

I literally don't know where to start.

Start with factorizing the numerator.
