Answer:
- (x - 3y)(3x + y)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
(x + 2y)² - (2x - y)² ← expand both parenthesis using FOIL
= x² + 4xy + 4y² - (4x² - 4xy + y²) ← distribute
= x² + 4xy + 4y² - 4x² + 4xy - y² ← collect like terms
= - 3x² + 8xy + 3y² ← factor out - 1 from each term
= - 1(3x² - 8xy - 3y²) ← factor the quadratic
Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the x² term and the coefficient of the y² term which sum to give the coefficient of the xy- term.
product = 3 × - 3 = - 9 and sum = - 8
The factors are - 9 and + 1
Use these factors to split the xy- term
3x² - 9xy + xy - 3y² ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
= 3x(x - 3y) + y(x - 3y) ← factor out (x - 3y) from each term
= (x - 3y)(3x + y)
Thus
(x + 2y)² - (2x - y)² = - (x - 3y)(3x + y)
Part A:
The average rate of change refers to a function's slope. Thus, we are going to need to use the slope formula, which is:
and 
are points on the function
You can see that we are given the x-values for our interval, but we are not given the y-values, which means that we will need to find them ourselves. Remember that the y-values of functions refers to the outputs of the function, so to find the y-values simply use your given x-value in the function and observe the result:
Now, let's find the slopes for each of the sections of the function:
<u>Section A</u>
<u>Section B</u>
Part B:
In this case, we can find how many times greater the rate of change in Section B is by dividing the slopes together.
It is 25 times greater. This is because 
is an exponential growth function, which grows faster and faster as the x-values get higher and higher. This is unlike a linear function which grows or declines at a constant rate.
You need to find x so that then you can do it and you didn’t share a answer so how are we supposed to know??
The question is asking for the pattern of change within the given numbers. As you can see, the number decreases by 0.02 from left to right. Therefore, D is the correct answer. The whole number and tenths place remains constant as the hundredths place lowers by 2.
When it says 4x4 and 12x2 does that mean it’s squared or multiplied by those?
