Choose the appropriate pattern and use it to find the product: (p4−q4)(p4+q4).

sp2606 [1]

The expression can be solved by expanding the bracket and multiplying out the terms

$(p^4-q^4)(p^4+q^4)$ $\begin{gathered} =p^4(p^4+q^4)-q^4(p^4+q^4) \\ =p^8+p^4q^4-p^4q^4-q^8 \\ =p^8-q^8 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the expression can be simplified as;

$p^8-q^8$

Alternatively, using the theorem of difference of two squares, which is

$a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)$

Hence,

$p^8-q^8=(p^4)^2-(q^4)^2$

Use the box method to distribute and simplify (-5x-2)(-2x^2+6x).

Mkey [24]

Answer:

$10x^{3} - 26x^{2} - 12x$

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Use the FOIL method: (a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd.

$10x^{3} - 30x^{2} + 4x^{2} -12x$

2) Collect like terms.

$10x^{3} + (-30x^{2} +4x^{2} )-12x$

3) Simplify.

$10x^{3} - 26x^{2} -12x$

Therefor, the answer is, 10x^3 - 26x^2 - 12x.

Explain why there can be no infinite geometric series with a first term of 12 and a sum of 5.

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When you find the sum of a number you are adding two or more numbers together. therefore the only answer that you could use to get a sum of 5 when your first term is 12 would be -7
