Answer:
If there are an even number (0, 2, 4, ...) of negative factors to multiply, the product is positive. If there are an odd number (1, 3, 5, ...) of negative factors, the product is negative.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1. C. Yes, because a sum of cubes can be factored
2a. false
2b. false
2c. true
2d. false (based on what is written in the equation; refer to step-by-step)
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Both 3 and 8 can be cubed, which is why x^3+8 can be factored (x+2)(x^2-2x+4)
2a. a^2-b^2 can be factored by the perfect square rule, so it should be (a-b)^2
2b. both terms are perfect squares, so you can factor, making it (a+b)(a-b)
2c. You can factor using the perfect square rule, making it (a+b)^2
2d. Most of what is in the equation is true, yet the correct solution would be (a-b)(a^2+ab+b^2)
Answer:
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
Those angles are supplementary so:
140+5x=180
5x=40
x=8
X+x+20+2x=180
4x+20=180
4x=160
x=40
