Answer:
1.6
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 - 4
------------------------------
x + 7 | x^3 + 7x^2 - 4x - 28
x^3 + 7x^2
------------------
0 - 4x - 28
-4x - 28
-------------
0
Now we know that
x^3 + 7x^2 - 4x - 28 = (x^2 - 4)(x + 7)
x^2 - 4 can be factored since it is the difference of two squares.
x^2 - 4 = (x + 2)(x - 2)
The complete factoring is:
x^3 + 7x^2 - 4x - 28 = (x +2)(x - 2)(x + 7)
1) b (think commutative and associative properties) , 2) a (think that minus a negative equals positive)
The denominator is the bottom number in a fraction or the total number of parts so 2, 8, 8, 8, and 8
The answer to this is A) For 8 birdhouses, he will need 16 trapezoids.
(B = 12*4 is 48 not 16.) (C = A 2 to 1 ratio.) (D = a 1 to 2 ratio.) Hope that helps!
