How do you factor 5x^4- 5x^2

Mathematics
1 answer:
Len [333]4 years ago
4 0
The greatest common factor is 5x^2 so:

5x^2(x^2-1)  (now notice that the parenthetical term is the difference of perfect squares)

The rule for factoring difference of squares is:  a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b) so:

5x^2(x+1)(x-1)

The function f(x)is shown in the graph.<br><br> What is the equation for f(x)?
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

(-5/6)x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

the equation is given by: y = mx + b

m = slope

b = y intercept

m = -5/6

y intercept = -1

f(x) = (-5/6)x - 1

Choose whether it's always, sometimes, never 
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer: An integer added to an integer is an integer, this statement is always true. A polynomial subtracted from a polynomial is a polynomial, this statement is always true. A polynomial divided by a polynomial is a polynomial, this statement is sometimes true. A polynomial multiplied by a polynomial is a polynomial, this statement is always true.

Explanation:

1)

The closure property of integer states that the addition, subtraction and multiplication is integers is always an integer.

If a\in Z\text{ and }b\in Z, then a+b\in Z.

Therefore, an integer added to an integer is an integer, this statement is always true.

2)

A polynomial is in the form of,

p(x)=a_nx^n+a_{n-1}x^{x-1}+...+a_1x+a_0

Where a_n,a_{n-1},...,a_1,a_0 are constant coefficient.

When we subtract the two polynomial then the resultant is also a polynomial form.

Therefore, a polynomial subtracted from a polynomial is a polynomial, this statement is always true.

3)

If a polynomial divided by a polynomial  then it may or may not be a polynomial.

If the degree of numerator polynomial is higher than the degree of denominator polynomial then it may be a polynomial.

For example:

f(x)=x^2-2x+5x-10 \text{ and } g(x)=x-2

Then \frac{f(x)}{g(x)}=x^2+5, which a polynomial.

If the degree of numerator polynomial is less than the degree of denominator polynomial then it is a rational function.

For example:

f(x)=x^2-2x+5x-10 \text{ and } g(x)=x-2

Then \frac{g(x)}{f(x)}=\frac{1}{x^2+5}, which a not a polynomial.

Therefore, a polynomial divided by a polynomial is a polynomial, this statement is sometimes true.

4)

As we know a polynomial is in the form of,

p(x)=a_nx^n+a_{n-1}x^{x-1}+...+a_1x+a_0

Where a_n,a_{n-1},...,a_1,a_0 are constant coefficient.

When we multiply the two polynomial, the degree of the resultand function is addition of degree of both polyminals and the resultant is also a polynomial form.

Therefore, a polynomial subtracted from a polynomial is a polynomial, this statement is always true.

La batalla de Inglés y Matemáticas Pregunta: Tenía $ 5.00 Mi mamá me dio $ 10.00 mientras que mi papá me dio $ 30.00. Mi tía y m
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

$150.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Tenía $ 5.00

Mi mamá me dio $ 10.00 mientras que mi papá me dio $ 30.00.

Esto significa que luego tengo:

5 + 10 + 30 = $ 45.00

 

Mi tía y mi tío me dieron 100.00.

Entonces tuve:

45 + 100 = $ 145.00

Tenía otros $ 5.00.

Esto significa que en conjunto tuve:

145 + 5 = $ 150.00

Find the volume of the solid. *<br> 7)
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume (V) is calculated as

V = area of triangular face × depth

Area of triangle = \frac{1}{2} bh ( b is the base and h the height )

Here b = 3 and h = 4 , then

A = \frac{1}{2} × 3 × 4 = 6 Km²

Now depth = 2, thus

V = 6 × 2 = 12 Km³ → B
