Answer:
- (x -3)(x+3)(2x +1)
- (x -1)(x +1)(x +3)
- (2x -1)(2x +1)(x -4)
Step-by-step explanation:
A) 2x³ +x² -18x -9 = x²(2x +1) -9(2x +1) = (x² -9)(2x +1) = (x -3)(x+3)(2x +1)
__
B) x³ +3x² -x -3 = x²(x +3) -1(x +3) = (x² -1)(x +3) = (x -1)(x +1)(x +3)
__
C) 4x³ -16x² -x +4 = 4x²(x -4) -1(x -4) = (4x² -1)(x -4) = (2x -1)(2x +1)(x -4)
_____
In each case, the third-level factoring mentioned in step 4 is the factoring of the difference of squares: a² -b² = (a -b)(a +b).
_____
The step-by-step is exactly what you need to do. It is simply a matter of following those instructions. You do have to be able to recognize the common factors of a pair of terms. That will be the GCF of the numbers and the least powers of the common variables.
Answer:
27/20
Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:
38
Step-by-step explanation:
add all the numbers and divide that number by the amount of numbers there.
34+46+52+29+41+38+36+28 / 8 = 304/8 = 38
(-1,5)(1,9)
slope = (9 - 5) / (1 - (-1) = 4 / (1 + 1) = 4/2 = 2
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 2
use any of ur points in the table....(1,9)...x = 1 and y = 9
now we sub ad find b, the y int
9 = 2(1) + b
9 = 2 + b
9 - 2 = b
7 = b
so ur equation of the table is : y = 2x + 7.....where the slope = 2 and the y intercept = 7
so, the equation with the greater slope and the greater y int is :
y = 3x + 7.5....this has a slope of 3 and a y int of 7.5
