Answer: Carlos is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
2x^5-250x^2
The first step is to factorize out 2x^2
2x^2(x^3-125)
This can be rewritten as
2x^2(x^3-5^3),
Recall, difference if cube (a^3-b^3)
= (a-b)(a^2 +ab + b^2)
from our equation,
a= x
b = 5.
So the difference of cubes will be
2x^2[(x-5) (x^2 + 5x + 5^2)]
=2x^2[(x-5) (x^2 + 5x + 25)]
Carlos followed these steps. So he is correct. Carlos is correct because he correctly factored the GCF, identified a and b, and applied the difference of cubes method.
Amber is incorrect because 125 is equal to b3, not b.
Bernie is incorrect because x2 is not the GCF of the polynomial. The GCF is 2x^2.
Density is the degree of compactness of a substance. It is the degree of consistency measured by the quantity of mass per unit volume. It is the relationship between the mass of the substance and the amount of space it takes up. I hope it helps.
I need sum more info just email me and we can get this dun
Answer:
By the triangle side length theorem, the sum of the two shorter sides has to be equal to or larger than the third side. Thus, we can write the following inequation.
a
+
b
≥
c
, where a and b are the shorter sides and c the longest.
11, 9 and 15 satisfies this inequality while 11, 9 and 20 doesn't.
Justification:
The reason for this rule is simple; it's because if the longest side is longer than the sum of the two shorter sides, this means that the shorter sides aren't long enough to connect with the longest side, thus rendering the shape a collection of lines and disqualifying the possibility of having a triangle, which was our objective.
