Answer: C. −2x(x−3)(x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF).

GCF=2x

2. Factor out the GCF. (Write the GCF first. Then, in parentheses, divide each term by the GCF.)

2x(2x^3/2x+−2x^2/2x+−12x/2x)

3. Simplify each term in parentheses.

−2x(x^2−x−6)

4. Factor x^2−x−6

−2x(x−3)(x+2)

The answer is C because the 2x outside of the brackers must be negative to produce the beginning term. The next terms are positive and two negatives make a positive, therefore we can conclude that there must be a negative inside the brackets too.

The equation T^2 = A^3 shows the relationship between a planet’s orbital period, T, and the planet’s mean distance from the sun,

Helen [10]

So, let planet X's orbital period be T and its mean distance from the sun be A. Also let planet Y's orbital period be T_1, so that means if planet Y's mean distance from the sun were double that of planet X:

$Z^2=(2A)^3\\ Z^2=8A^3\implies\\ Z^2=8T^2 \implies\\ Z=2\sqrt{2}T$
