How can we factorise the expression: 2x^6+17x^3+8?​
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

(a + 2)( {a}^{2}  - 2a +  4 )(2 {x}^{ 3}  + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^6+17x^3+8 \\  = 2x^6+16x^3 +  {x}^{3} +8 \\  =  2{x}^{3} ( {x}^{3}  + 8) + 1( {x}^{3}  + 8) \\  = ( {x}^{3}  + 8)(2 {x}^{ 3}  + 1) \\  = ( {x}^{3}  +  {2}^{3} )(2 {x}^{ 3}  + 1)  \\  = (a + 2)( {a}^{2}  - 2a +  {2}^{2} )(2 {x}^{ 3}  + 1)   \\  = (a + 2)( {a}^{2}  - 2a +  4 )(2 {x}^{ 3}  + 1)  \\

The scatter plot shows the amount of sunlight some tomato plants received and the amount of each plant grew
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is attached herewith.

Also the options for the same are as follows -

What is the meaning of the slope of the trend line shown on the scatterplot?  

A A plant grows about 3 inches for every 2 hours of sunlight it receives.  

B A plant grows about 2 inches for every 3 hours of sunlight it receives.  

C A plant grows about 3 inches for every 1 hour of sunlight it receives.  

D A plant grows about 1 inch for every 3 hours of sunlight it receives.

Solution

If we look at the graph, we can see that in 6 hours the tomato plant grew by 2 inches.

At the X axis, when x = 6 hours, the y co-ordinate at X = 6 hours is 2 inches.

Hence, It can be interpreted that 1 inch of the tomato plant grows in 3 hours.

Hence, option D is correct

Please help me with 2 and 3 and use the elimination process!
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

2. Judy =$5

Ben= $4

Step-by-step explanation:

2. Let Judy =  x  and Ben =  y

8x + 10y = 80

9x + 5y = 65

Solve these simultaneous equations.

8 x  +  10 y  =  80

18 x  +  10 y  =  130

Take the second equation away from the first equation

− 10 x  =  − 50

x  =  5

This means that Judy gets paid $5 an hour.

Therefore, Ben gets paid $4 an hour.

Answer:

3. 24 quarters and 16 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

3. Let the number of dimes = x and the number of quarters = y

                                    Value      Value

Type        Number       of             of

of             of                EACH      ALL

coin         coins            coin        coins

-------------------------------------------

dimes         x              $0.10       $0.10x

quarters      y             $0.25      $0.25y

-------------------------------------------

TOTALS    40                            $7.60

x + y = 40

0.10x + 0.25y = 7.60

Get rid of decimals by multiplying every term by 100:

10x + 25y = 760

So we have the system of equations:

x + y = 40

10x + 25y = 760

         

We solve by substitution.  Solve the first equation for y:

x + y = 40

y = 40 - x

Substitute (40 - x) for y in 10x + 25y = 760

      10x + 25(40 - x) = 760

      10x + 1000 - 25x = 760

           -15x + 1000 = 760

                  -15x = -240

                       x = 16 = the number of dimes.

Substitute in y = 40 - x

                     y = 40 - (16)

                     y = 24 quarters.

$1.60 + $6.00 = $7.60

I hope that helped, sorry for taking so long :-)
