Factor completely y^2-xy-56x^2

Mathematics
2 answers:
ki77a [65]3 years ago

Answer: <em> </em>I got (y-8x)(y-7x) by factoring out the factors of 56, that have a sum of -1.

8 and 7 are factors of 56 when you multiply them and to get a sum of -1, 8 should change to negative. 7 + -8 = -1

You can factor this out by thinking of the factors of 56 that have a sum of -1. 7 and 8 are factors of 56 and to get a sum of -1, 8 should be negative. 7 + -8 = -1

So y^{2} - xy -  56x^{2} factored out is (y+7x)(y-8x)

We can check this using FOIL
F = (y)(y) = y^{2}
O = (y)(-8x) = -8xy
I = (7x)(y) = 7xy 
L = (7x)(-8x) = -56x^{2}
y^{2} - 8xy + 7xy - 56x^{2} Combine like terms
y^{2} - xy - 56x^{2}

Eli claims that the product of and is . Which explains whether Eli is correct?
Shalnov [3]

Answer: last option.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Product of powers property, you have:

a^n*a^m=a^{(n+m)}

As you can see, when you can add the exponents when you have powers with equal base.

Then,  6^5  and 5^{-3} do not have the same base, therefore, the exponents can't be added.

Therefore, Eli is incorrect, because he added the exponents even though the bases are not the same.

Solve for a and b. please help.
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

a= 22.5

b= 37.5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>In</u><u> </u><u>△</u><u>BCD</u><u>:</u>

Applying Pythagoras' Theorem,

a² +30²= b²

a² +900= b² -----(1)

<u>In</u><u> </u><u>△</u><u>ABC</u><u>:</u>

Applying Pythagoras' Theorem,

b² +50²= (40 +a)² -----(2)

Substitute (1) into (2):

a² +900 +50²= 40² +2(40)(a) +a²<em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em> </em><em>(</em><em>expand</em><em> </em><em>bracket</em><em>)</em>

a² +900 +2500= 1600 +80a +a²

a² +3400= a² +80a +1600 <em>(</em><em>simplify</em><em>)</em>

a² +3400 -a² -80a -1600= 0 <em>(</em><em>bring</em><em> </em><em>everything</em><em> </em><em>to</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em> </em><em>side</em><em>)</em>

-80a +1800= 0

80a= 1800 <em>(</em><em>+</em><em>8</em><em>0</em><em> </em><em>on</em><em> </em><em>both</em><em> </em><em>sides</em><em>)</em>

a= 1800 ÷80

a= 22.5

Subst. a= 22.5 into (1):

22.5² +900= b²

b²= 506.25 +900

b²= 1406.25

b= √1406.25 <em>(</em><em>square</em><em> </em><em>root</em><em> </em><em>both</em><em> </em><em>sides</em><em>)</em>

b= 37.5 <em>(</em><em>reject</em><em> </em><em>negative</em><em> </em><em>value</em><em> </em><em>since</em><em> </em><em>b</em><em> </em><em>is</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em> </em><em>length</em><em>)</em>

☆(a +b)²= a² +2ab +b²

I need help with this, it's due in 15 mins-
LiRa [457]

Answer:

Mean: 3.5263157894737

Median: 3

Mode: 3

Step-by-step explanation: The mode is 3 because the mode is for which number pops up the most, which is 3.

I got the median by crossing out 8 from the left and the right of the number set and got 3 as the last number.

I got the mean by adding up all the numbers and divided it by the amount of numbers in the set.
