Hey there :)
( a + b )( a² - ab + b² )
Let us distribute ( a + b )
a ( a² ) + a ( - ab ) + a ( b² ) + b ( a² ) + b ( - ab ) + b ( b² )
a³ - a²b + ab² + a²b - ab² + b³
We can simplify further:
- a²b + a²b = 0
ab² - ab² = 0
a³ + b³
You can see in the picture I have attached that this is the
7th formula
Answer:
Line of east wedge is: 2x - y = 96
So, Option 1 is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
The east edge cannot intersect with the west edge means that two lines are parallel.
If the two lines are parallel then they have same slope. We need to find the slopes of given lines and check which line has slope same as slope of west edge.
Slope of west edge.
y = 2x + 5
The standard equation for slope intercept form is:
y = mx+b
where m is the slope. So, m= 2
Now finding line for east edge.
Option 1.
Convert each given equation to standard slope intercept form and find the slope.
2x -y =96
-y = -2x +96
Multiply with -1
y = 2x -96
m = 2
Option 2.
-2x -y = 96
-y = 2x +96
y = -2x-96
m = -2
Option 3
-y-2x =48
-y = 2x +48
y = -2x -48
m = -2
Option 4.
y+2x = 48
y = -2x+48
m = -2
So, only line of Option 1 has slope = 2 which is equal to the slope of west edge.
Line of east wedge is: 2x - y = 96
So, Option 1 is correct.
Answer:
f(x) = 1.5x - 0.5x
Step-by-step explanation:
The function of the pattern represented by the pentagonal numbers is the sum of three triangular numbers.
The triangular number general formula
x (x + 1) / 2
For example,
The sequence
1, 3, 6, 10
*
* * *
* * * * * *
* , * *, * * *, * * * *
_____________________________
The pentagonal numbers
The sequence:
1, 5, 12, 22, 35
As shown in the picture can be divided into three triangles
Triangle 2
x (x + 1) / 2
Triangle 1 and 3 (they are triangles one unit smaller than 2)
n (n + 1) / 2
n= x-1
Replacing n
(x-1) ((x-1) + 1) / 2
(x-1) (x) / 2
(x-1) x / 2
______________
Function represents the pattern
Triangle 2 + (Triangle 1 + Triangle 3)
Triangle 1 = Triangle 3
So then,
Triangle 2 + 2* Triangle 1
x (x +1) /2 + 2* (x -1) x/2
Rearranging
0.5 x (x +1) + x(x -1)
0.5x^2 + 0.5x + x^2 -x
(0.5 x^2 + x^2) + (0.5x -x )
1.5 x^2 - 0.5 x

I believe its 27.75. I wouldn't take my word for it though.
