Answer:

Lucas groups the polynomial (12x^3 + 8x) + (–6x^2 – 4) to factor → 2 (2 x - 1) (3 x^2 + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the following:

12 x^3 - 6 x^2 + 8 x - 4

Hint: | Factor out the greatest common divisor of the coefficients of 12 x^3 - 6 x^2 + 8 x - 4.

Factor 2 out of 12 x^3 - 6 x^2 + 8 x - 4:

2 (6 x^3 - 3 x^2 + 4 x - 2)

Hint: | Factor pairs of terms in 6 x^3 - 3 x^2 + 4 x - 2 by grouping.

Factor terms by grouping. 6 x^3 - 3 x^2 + 4 x - 2 = (6 x^3 - 3 x^2) + (4 x - 2) = 3 x^2 (2 x - 1) + 2 (2 x - 1):

2 3 x^2 (2 x - 1) + 2 (2 x - 1)

Hint: | Factor common terms from 3 x^2 (2 x - 1) + 2 (2 x - 1).

Factor 2 x - 1 from 3 x^2 (2 x - 1) + 2 (2 x - 1):

Answer: 2 (2 x - 1) (3 x^2 + 2)

Answer:

UW ≈ 6.55 ≈ 7

Step-by-step explanation:

cos (35) = adjacent/hypotenuse

cos(35) = UW/VW

cos(35) = UW/8

8*cos(35) = UW

UW ≈ 6.55

Hope this helped! <3

Lois and Clark each ordered 3 posters that each cost x dollers. The postage for 3 posters is $5. Lois wrote an expression for th
konstantin123 [22]
The two equations are equivalent.

The postage for 3 posters is $5.
Lois$ wrote an expression for the total they both spent as 6x + 10 6(25) +10
150 +10 = 160

Clark wrote another expression for the total, saying that it represented the same cost: 2(3x + 5). = 2(3x) + 2(5) 6x + 10 = 6(25) + 10 = 150+10 160

If each poster costs $25, do the two expressions give the same amount?
