Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

$(a + b)^{3} = {a}^{3} + {b}^{3} + 3ab(a + b) \\ ( - 1)^{3} = {a}^{3} + {b}^{3} + 3ab( - 1) \\ - 1 = {a}^{3} + {b}^{3} - 3ab\\ \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{{a}^{3} + {b}^{3} - 3ab = - 1}}$

liraira [26]

27; The first stack is 3 x 3 (= 9). You then multiply 9 by 3 (for each of the 3 stacks). Basically, 3 x 3 x 3.

Answer:

$\frac{4x+2}{x^2 - 9x + 8} = \frac{4x}{(x-8)(x-1)} + \frac{2}{(x-8)(x-1)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{4x+2}{x^{2}-9+8 } = \frac{A}{()(x-1)} + \frac{B}{()(x-8)}$

Required

Fill in the gaps

Going by the given parameters, we have that

$\frac{4x+2}{x^{2}-9+8 } = \frac{A}{()(x-1)} + \frac{B}{()(x-8)}$

$x^2 - 9x + 8$ , when factorized is $(x-1)(x-8)$

Hence; the expression becomes

$\frac{4x+2}{(x-1)(x-8)} = \frac{A}{(x-8)(x-1)} + \frac{B}{(x-1)(x-8)}$

Combine Fractions

$\frac{4x+2}{(x-1)(x-8)} = \frac{A + B}{(x-8)(x-1)}$

Simplify the denominators

$4x + 2 = A + B$

By direct comparison

$A = 4x$

$B = 2$

Hence, the complete expression is

$\frac{4x+2}{x^2 - 9x + 8} = \frac{4x}{(x-8)(x-1)} + \frac{2}{(x-8)(x-1)}$

Three times the difference of eight and twice a number is five times the number

Sophie [7]

Answer:

3*( 8-2n)=5n

The number is 24/11

Step-by-step explanation:

three times

the difference of eight and twice a number

3*( 8-2n)

is five times the number

3*( 8-2n)=5n

To solve

Distribute

3*8 -3*2n = 5n

24 -6n = 5n

Add 6n to each side

24 - 6n +6n = 5n +6n

24 = 11n

Divide each side by 11

24/11 = 11n/11

24/11 =n

The number is 24/11
