Factor by grouping. Group up the terms into pairs, factor each pair, then factor out the overall GCF.
x^3 + 2x^2 - 16x - 32
(x^3 + 2x^2) + (-16x-32) ... pair up terms
x^2(x + 2) + (-16x - 32) ... factor x^2 from the first group
x^2(x + 2) - 16(x + 2) ... factor -16 from the second group
(x^2 - 16)(x + 2) .... factor out (x+2)
(x - 4)(x + 4)(x + 2) .... Use the difference of squares to factor x^2-16
---------------------------
The original expression completely factors to (x - 4)(x + 4)(x + 2)
The three factors are x - 4 and x + 4 and x + 2

Answer:
The water level is dropping at a rate of 0.24 ft/s
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we simply want to calculate the change in depth (height of the cone) , given the volume change
Mathematically, we have the volume of a cone as;
V = 1/3 * π * r^2 * h
we are given dv/dt as 12 ft^3/m
dv/dh = 1/3 * π * r^2
Substituting the value for the radius, we have
dv/dh = 1/3 * 22/7 * 4^2 = 50.29
dh/dt = dh/dv * dv/dt
dh/dv = 1/(dv/dh) = 1/50.29
Thus,
dh/dt = 1/50.29 * 12
dh/dt = 0.24 ft/s
Answer: 0
Step-by-step explanation: In order to identify the <em>y-intercept</em> of this equation, we want to get this equation into slope-intercept form which is more commonly known as y = mx + b form.
The problem is our equation doesn't match up quite so well with the formula y = mx + b. Our slope or <em>m</em> which is represented by the coefficient of the <em>x</em> <em>term</em> is clearly +4 but what is our y-intercept or b?
Well y = 4x can be thought of as y = 4x + 0 so you can see that our b or y-intercept equals 0.
