Answer:
D.) a+2b
Step-by-step explanation:
The integers 'a' and 'b' can be any, so you can choose a couple and evaluate these expressions to see what you get. For example, we can let a=1 and b=0. For these values, the offered expressions evaluate to ...
A) 3(0) = 0 . . . even
B) 1 +3 = 4 . . . even
C) 2(1+0) = 2 . . . even
D) 1 +2(0) = 1 . . . odd

<em>Additional comment</em>
These rules apply to even/odd:
- odd × odd = odd
- odd × even = even
- even × even = even
- odd + odd = even
- odd + even = odd
- even + even = even
Then A is (odd)(even) = even; B is (odd)+(odd) = even; C is (even)(whatever) = even; D = (odd)+(even) = odd.
What form do you need it in?
Since we are dealing with a radical then x - 5 ≥ 0, for real values
x = 4 is less than 5 , hence is not in the domain
Answer:
17 terms
Step-by-step explanation:
131072 = 2^17
8 = 2^3
4 = 2^2
2 = 2^1
Apparently, the sequence is powers of 2 from 17 down to 1, so there are 17 terms in the sequence.
Answer:
E. This polynomial could be factored by using grouping or the perfect squares methods.
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 + 2x + 1
There is no greatest common factor
This is a perfect square
a^2 + 2ab+ b^2 = ( x+1)^2
We can factor this by grouping
x^2 + 2x + 1
(x^2 +x) + (x+1)
x( x+1) + x+1
Factor out x+1
( x+1) ( x+1)
This is not the difference of squares since there is no subtraction
