Linear function divided by quadratic function?
If I have
(Linear Function)/(Quadratic Function)
Would my final answer be
k/(Linear Function) where k is a constant

Let the linear function be ax+b and let the quadratic function be px^2+qx+r. So the ratio is
(ax+b)/(px^2+qx+r)(assuming that both functions of same variable x).
If (ax+b) divides (px^2+qx+r), then the answer will be of the form k/(mx+n). Else its it is.
To divide, just factorize (px^2+qx+r) and divide.

I believe so, but only if the quadratic function and linear function are divisible by one another. I'm not completely sure though...
So sorry!
