x² - 49

--------------------------------------------------
Form into 2 perfect squares
---------------------------------------------------
x² - 7²

--------------------------------------------------
Formula
---------------------------------------------------
a² - b² = (a + b) (a - b)

--------------------------------------------------
Apply the formula
---------------------------------------------------
x² - 7² = (x + 7)(x - 7)

--------------------------------------------------
Answer: (x + 7)(x - 7)

You want to pull out the square roots of each term since they are both perfect squares.

Factor using the difference of squares formula: a2-b2=(a+b)(a-b)
This formula allows the middle term to cancel out.

=x2 - 49
=(x + 7)(x - 7)


ANSWER: (x + 7)(x - 7)

Hope this helps! :)

Answer:

  C  18(2 + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The GCD of 36 and 54 is their difference, 18. Factoring that out of the sum, you have ...

  36 + 54 = (18·2 + 18·3) = 18(2 + 3) . . . . matches choice C

kherson [118]

Answer:

dh/dt=9.82x10^-3 ft/min

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You have that the rate is10 ft³/min. Then:

dV/dt=10

2. The formula for calculate the volume of a cone, is:

V=1/3(πr²h)

"r" is the radius and "h" is the height.

3. The diameter of the base of the cone is approximately 3 times the altitude. Then, the radius is:

r=diameter/2

diameter=3h

r=3h/2

4. When you susbstitute r=3h/2 into the formula V=πr²h/3, you have:

V=1/3(πr²h)

V=1/3(π(3h/2)²(h)

V=1/3(π9h²/4)(h)

V=9πh³/12

5. Therefore:

dV/dt=(9πh²/4)dh/dt

h=12

dV/dt=10

6. When you substitute the values of dV/dt and h into dV/dt=(9π(12)²/4)dh/dt, you have:

dV/dt=(9π(12)²/4)dh/dt

10=(1017.876)

7. Finally, you obtain:

dh/dt=10/1017.876

dh/dt=9.82x10^-3 ft/min
