STEP-BY-STEP SOLUTION:

= a^3 - 4a^2 + 12 - 3a

= a^2 ( a - 4 ) + 3 ( 4 - a )

= a^2 ( a - 4 ) - 3 ( a - 4 )

= ( a - 4 ) ( a^2 - 3 )

$a^3-4a^2+12-3a=(a^3-4a^2)-(3a-12)\\\\=a^2(a-4)-3(a-4)=\boxed{(a-4)(a^2-3)}\\\\=(a-4)(a^2-(\sqrt3)^2)\\\\\text{use}\ a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)\\\\=\boxed{(a-4)(a-\sqrt3)(a+\sqrt3)}$

Jake’s measures the height of a tree to be 74 3/8

goblinko [34]

I'm assuming the question is asking how tall the tree is if it has grown 2 3/4 inches.

The initial height of the tree is 74 3/8 inches and it grows 2 3/4 inches after six months. We can add these two numbers together to calculate the height of the tree now.

$74\frac{3}{8} + 2\frac{3}{4}$

Since these are both mixed numbers, we must find a common denominator to add our fractions. 8 is the lowest common denominator for 4 and 8. So:

$74\frac{3}{8} + 2\frac{6}{8}$

We can now add our whole numbers up (74 + 2) and add the numerators of the fractions together to get a single fraction ( $\frac{3}{8} + \frac{6}{8}$ ).

74 + 2 = 76

$\frac{3}{8} + \frac{6}{8} = \frac{9}{8}$

Putting these two together, we get $76 \frac{9}{8}$ , which is equal to $77\frac{1}{8}$ .

We can also turn this answer into an improper fraction. This is done by multiplying the whole number by the denominator and adding the numerator. So in this case:

77 x 8 = 616

616 + 1 = 617

The denominator stays the same, so our answer as an improper fraction would be $\frac{617}{8}$ .

So the tree is $77\frac{1}{8}$ inches tall, or $\frac{617}{8}$ inches tall.

The sum of a number and 15

ollegr [7]

Answer:

x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem is in word form. Write the problem in algebraic form, which means using numbers and symbols (like + - ÷ x).

Take the key word:

'sum' - This means the answer when you add numbers. To add you use the + plus sign.

The sum of a number and 15 means adding a number and 15.

There is no equal sign because the question does not say "equals" or "is".

Choose a variable to represent "a number". I will choose the letter 'x'. Add 15 to 'x'.

x + 15
