Factor completely:64 - y^3

Mathematics

madam [21]3 years ago

From your equation, you can see that you have a difference of two cubes (aka two cubes being subtracted): 64, which is 4^{3}, and y^{3}.

There is rule for the difference of two cubes:
The difference of two cubes is equal to the difference of the cube roots times a binomial, which is the sum of the squares of the roots plus the product of the roots.

That sounds pretty confusing, but it's much easier to understand when put mathematically. Let's say our two cubes are a^{3} and b^{3}. The difference of those two cubes is:
a^{3} - b^{3} = (a - b)( a^{2} + ab + b^{2})

In our problem, a = 4 (since a^{3} = 64) and b = y (since b^{3} = y^{3}. Plug these values into the rule to find the factor of 64 - y^3:
64 - y^3 \\
= (4 - y)( 4^{2} + 4y + y^{2}) \\
=  (4 - y)( 16 + 4y + y^{2})

-----

Answer: (4 - y)( 16 + 4y + y^{2})

PLEASE ANSWER REALLY FAST I WILL MARK BRAINLIEST IF ANSWERED IN 2 MINUTES What is 15 x minus 3 y = 0 written in slope-intercept
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

15x + 3y = 10. 

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to solve for y. 

isolate the variable. 

15x + 3y = 10 

start by subtracting 15x on both sides. 

3y = -15x +10 

then divide both sides by 3 

y = -15/3x + 10/3 

simplify. 

y = -5x + 10/3 

10/3 can be written as 3.33 

or 3 and 1/3

In a random sample, 10 students were asked to compute the distance they travel one way to school to the nearest tenth of a mile.
elixir [45]

Answer:

Mean = 3.12, Variance = 3.324, Standard deviation = 1.8232

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students = 10 students.

Given data, 1.1, 5.2, 3.6, 5.0, 4.8, 1.8, 2.2, 5.2, 1.5, 0.8

To find the mean, at first we have to take the sum of all given data and then divide with the number of students.

Let the data is X, = 1.1, + 5.2, + 3.6, + 5.0, + 4.8, + 1.8, + 2.2, + 5.2, + 1.5, + 0.8 = 31.2

Mean = 31.2 / 10 = 3.12

\text{Standard deviation, S} = \sqrt{\frac{\sum x^{2} - \left [ (\sum x)^{2}/n \right ]}{n-1}} \\S = 1.8232 \\\rm The \ Variance = S^{2} = 3.324

A cup of coffee at 85 degrees Celsius is placed in a room at 25 degrees Celsius. Suppose that the coffee cools at a rate of 5 de
bezimeni [28]

Answer: k = - 6.6667

Step-by-step explanation:

this is quite very simple to begin. I would encourage you take other practice questions similar to help with understanding it.

let us begin.

Given that ;

dT/dt = k ( Tm - T)       where Tm is the temp of the medium

dT/dt = 5 degrees Celsius per minute    when T = 70

so we have that, 5 = k ( 25 - 70)

remember to convert 5 degree celsius per minute to seconds

we have that;

5*60(sec) = k ( 25 - 70)  

k = 5*60 / ( 25 - 70)

k = - 6.6667

note K is negative because we consider it for cooling process  (temp decreasing).

cheers i hope this helps!!!
