Mathematics

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})

Terrence gets a loan with a $50 processing fee. The loan is for $700 with an interest rate of 8% for one
agasfer [191]

Answer:

15.14%

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for APR is stated thus:

APR=fees+interest/principal/n*365*100

principal is the loan amount of $700

fees is the processing fees on the loan which is $50

interest amount=principal*interest %=$700*8%=$56

n is the number of days of the loan which is a year i.e 365 days

APR=($50+$56)/$700/365*365*100

APR=$106/$700/365*365*100

APR=0.151428571 /365*365*100

APR=0.151428571 *100=15.14%

The annual percentage rate on the loan is 15.14% which represents the actual cost on the loan not just the interest cost of 8% annually
