ANSWER

\frac{125 - 8 {x}^{3} }{ 25 + 10x + 4 {x}^{2} } = - 2x+5

EXPLANATION

We have been given the quotient,

\frac{125 - 8 {x}^{3} }{ 25 + 10x + 4 {x}^{2} }
to simplify.

We need to rewrite the numerator as difference of two cubes.

\frac{125 - 8 {x}^{3} }{ 25 + 10x + 4 {x}^{2} } = \frac{ {5}^{3} - ( {2x})^{3} }{ 25 + 10x + 4 {x}^{2} }

We need to make use of the difference of cubes formula,

{a}^{3} - {b}^{3} = (a - b)( {a}^{2} + ab + {b}^{2} )

We now let,
a = 5 \: and \: b = 2x

Then the numerator becomes,

\frac{125 - 8 {x}^{3} }{ 25 + 10x + 4 {x}^{2} } = \frac{ (5 - 2x)(25 + 5 (2x) + {(2x)}^{2}) }{ 25 + 10x + 4 {x}^{2} }

This simplifies to,

\frac{125 - 8 {x}^{3} }{ 25 + 10x + 4 {x}^{2} } = \frac{ (5 - 2x)(25 + 10x + 4 {x}^{2}) }{ 25 + 10x + 4 {x}^{2} }

We cancel out common factors to obtain,

\frac{125 - 8 {x}^{3} }{ 25 + 10x + 4 {x}^{2} } = \frac{ (5 - 2x)}{ 1}

\frac{125 - 8 {x}^{3} }{ 25 + 10x + 4 {x}^{2} } = 5 - 2x

Answer:

The quotient is (5-2x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression  \frac{125-8{x}^{3}}{25+10x+4{x}^{2}}

We have to simplify the above expression to find the quotient.

\frac{125-8{x}^{3}}{25+10x+4{x}^{2}}

⇒ \frac{5^3-{2x}^{3}}{25+10x+4{x}^{2}}

By the identity

{a}^{3}-{b}^{3}=(a-b)({a}^{2}+ab+{b}^{2})

Here, a=5 and b=2x

gives  {5}^{3}-{2x}^{3}=5^2+5(2x)+(2x)^2=25+10x+4x^2

∴ expression becomes

\frac{125-8{x}^{3}}{25+10x+4{x}^{2}}=\frac{(5-2x)(25+10x+4x^2)}{25+10x+4{x}^{2}}=(5-2x)

Hence, the quotient becomes (5-2x)

What is the length of the missing leg
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the pythagorean theorem, we know that a^2+ b^2=c^2

In our case, we know b, which is 5 and c which is 13.

If we plug that into the equation, we get a^2+ 5^2 = 13^2

Next, we simplify the equation. a^2 + 25 = 169

Then we subtract 25 from 169. 169 - 25 = 144.

Lastly, we do the square root of 144 and we get 12 which is the missing side.

Sladkaya [172]

Answer: (x – 1)(x + 1)(x + 5) = 0

x – 1 = 0, so x =  1

x + 1 = 0, so x =  -1

x + 5 = 0, so x = -5
