Hi there!

We can begin by multiplying by its conjugate:

Simplify using the identity:


Take the square root of the expression:

Multiply again by the conjugate to get a SINGLE term in the denominator:

Simplify:

Use the above trig identity one more:

Cancel out sinA:

Split the fraction into two:

Recall:

Simplify:

The greatest common factor of 76 and 675 is 1
It will be 1 of the 100block
5 of the tens block and 2 single
The degree of a polynomial is the highest power of its terms.
The power of a term is the sum of the powers of all the variables in a term.
A polynomial is written starting with the greatest power in standard form.
In the first case, the power of the first term is 3, the power of the second is 3 (2 from x + 1 from y) but the power of x has decreased so it is the second term, and then so on.
In the second case, the power is starting form 2 and then increasing to 3. This is incorrect.
Therefore, Marcus' suggestion is correct.
For this case we have the following polynomial:

What we must do for this case is to factor the polynomial, so that we have:
1) The number of bottles
2) the weight of each bottle.
We have then:

Answer:
A factorization that could represent the number of water bottles and weight of each water bottle is:
