Question

Can this be simplified?

Answer 1

You can divide al the terms in the numerator by 4 and rewrite as:


`\frac12x^4 + x - \frac54`

Then you could factor out an x and write:


`x(\frac12x^3 + 1) - \frac54`

Not sure if this is any simpler. I'd go for the top one as the cleanest form.

Answer 2

No Nothing Further Can Be Done
