Mathematics

Answer:

x = -8 or x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To factor ax² + bx + c, use AC method.

a times c is 1 × -24 = -24.

Factors of ac (-24) that add up to b (5) are 8 and -3.

Divide by a and reduce: 8/1 and -3/1.

Therefore, the factors are x + 8 and x − 3.

x² + 5x − 24 = 0

(x + 8) (x − 3) = 0

x = -8 or 3

You should know that:

(a+b)(a+b)(a+b)

=a(a+b)(a+b)+b(a+b)(a+b)

=a(a²+2ab+b²)+b(a²+2ab+b²)

=a³+2a²b+ab²+a²b+2ab²+b³

=a³+3a²b+3ab²+b³

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

If a=5x and b=-4y

(5x+(-4y))³

=(5x-4y)³

=(5x)³+3(5x)²(-4y)+3(5x)(-4y)²+(-4y)³

=125x³+3(25x²)(-4y)+15x(16y²)-64y³

=125x³+75x²(-4y)+240xy²-64y³

=125x³-300x²y+240xy²-64y³
