(2x-3y)(4x^2+6xy+9y^2) is the factored form of 8x^3-27y^3

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

We have to factor the given expression

8x^3-27y^3

We can use the algebraic identity to factor the given expression

a^3-b^3=(a-b)(a^2+ab+b^2)

Lets make the given expression in form of a^3-b^3

8x^3-27y^3=(2)^3(x)^3-(3)^3(y)^3

8x^3-27y^3=(2x)^3-(3y)^3

Now apply the algebraic property in above expression

Here, a = 2x and b = 3y

Therefore,

(2x)^3-(3y)^3=(2x-3y)((2x)^2+(2x)(3y)+(3y)^2)

(2x)^3-(3y)^3=(2x-3y)(4x^2+6xy+9y^2)

Thus the given expression is factored out

What is the value of x? ​
Aliun [14]

The letter "x" is often used in algebra to mean a value that is not yet known. It is called a "variable" or sometimes an "unknown". In x + 2 = 7, x is a variable, but we can work out its value if we try! A variable doesn't have to be "x", it could be "y", "w" or any letter, name or symbol.

On a beach trip, Lucy rents a bike from “Wheels by the Waves”, where they rent bikes for $12 plus $3 per hour. If Lucy spent $30
Paul [167]

Answer: 6 hours

Step-by-step explanation: If you write an equation for this scenario it would be y = 12+3x. 12 is the starting value and x represents how many hours the bike is rented, therefore 3 dollars would be added to the initial 12 each hour. So if Lucy spent $30 then it would change to 30= 12+3x. Now you essentially just need to work backwards. Rearrange the equation and move 12 to the left of the equal sign to make 30-12=3x. Combine vairable to make 18=3x. Divide 3x by 3 to isolate x and divide 18 by 3 as well to make it even. This looks like 18/3=3x/3. Meaning it would end up as 6=x.

pashok25 [27]
Buys 2 gets 1 free okay so ..
Each pack has 6
She buys 6*2 = 12+ 6 because it’s the free pack it’ll be 18 cans per purchase
If she does this for 7 days (a week )
We will do 18 times 7

18*7 = 126 cans

Mrs. VanCleave will have 126 cans of orange juice.

(Can you make me the brainlist if this helps you ) thanks
