Take out a GCF (greatest common factor, which is 3x) factor what is left, (x^2 - 4)

ab-ac=a(b-c)

a=GCF

so factor

3x^3=3*x*x*x
12x=2*2*3*x
gcf=3*x=3x

3x(x^2)-3x(4)=3x(x^2-4)
we can also factor the inner further
remember that a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)
so
(x^2-4)=x^2-2^2=(x+2)(x-2)

fully factored is
3x(x+2)(x-2)

Allison wants to calculate the speed of a sound wave.<br> Which formula should she use?
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

speed = distance/time

Step-by-step explanation:

The faster a sound wave travels, the more distance it will cover in the same period of time. If a sound wave were observed to travel a distance of 700 meters in 2 seconds, then the speed of the wave would be 350 m/s.

A linear function models the height of a burning candle. Candle A comes out of the mold at 211 ​mm and is expected to be at 187
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

(11.4 - 22.8) / (26 - 7)

-11.4 / 19 this is the rate at which it burns - the slope

h = (-11.4/19)t + b

22.8 = (-11.4/19)7 + b

22.8 = (-79.8/19) + b

22.8 = -4.2 + b

27 = b

h = (-11.4/19)t + 27

Substitute 15 for t to determine the height of the candle.

Find the equation of the tangent line to the graph of f(a) = sec(a) at the point (0, 1).
Paladinen [302]
Let the required equation be y = mx + c; where y = 1, m = f'(0), x = 0
f(a) = sec(a)
f'(a) = sec(a)tan(a)
f'(0) = sec(0)tan(0) = 0

y = mx + c
1 = 0(0) + c
c = 1

Therefore, required equation is
y = 1.
