How to work this out in geometry form?

Two students, Carlos and Sophie, factored the trinomial -4x2 − 10x + 6. Sophie factored it as -2(2x − 1)(x + 3) and Carlos facto

Sophie has factored the term completely while Carlos has not factored the term completely.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to factor the trinomial:

$-4x^2-10x + 6$

Factoring:

$-4x^2-10x + 6\\Taking\,\,-2\,\,common:\\-2(2x^2+5x-3)\\Now\,\,factoring:\\-2(2x^2+6x-x-3)\\-2(2x(x+3)-1(x+3))\\-2(2x-1)(x+3)$

So, the factored form of $-4x^2-10x + 6$ is $-2(2x-1)(x+3)$

So, Sophie has factored the term completely. The terms are factored when we cannot further simplify it. Since Carlos factored (x+3)(-4x+2) 2 can be taken common from the term (-4x+2) so, it is not factored completely.

Did I do this correct???

The answer is actually D. Since 2.5 is a side of each tiny block, there is 3 sides that you are going to multiply together. There is 5,2 and 4 because we are multiplying the length,width and side. So the length is 2.5*5=12.5 which was correct. The width is 2.5*4=10 which you had but you crossed it out. Then lastly you are looking for the side of the shape. 2.5*2=5. Now that I have everything I just need to multiply everything together. 12.5*10*5=625 in³. I hope this helped you!

Hi guys, can anyone help me with this triple integral? Many thanks:)

Another triple integral. We're integrating over the interior of the sphere

$x^2+y^2+z^2=2^2$
