Answer:

B = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

2x^2 + 4xy − 48y^2

Factor out 2

2(x^2 + 2xy − 24y^2)

What 2 numbers multiply to -24 and add to 2

-4 *6 = -24

-4+6 = 2

2 ( x+6y)( x-4y)

Answer:

\huge\boxed{B=6}

Step-by-step explanation:

They are two way to solution.

<h2>METHOD 1:</h2>

Factor the polynomial on the left side of the equation:

2x^2+4xy-48y^2=2(x^2+2xy-24y^2)=2(x^2+6xy-4xy-24y^2)\\\\=2\bigg(x(x+6y)-4y(x+6y)\bigg)=2(x+6y)(x-4y)

Therefore:

2x^2+4xy-48y^2=2(x+By)(x-4y)\\\Downarrow\\2(x+6y)(x-4y)=2(x+By)(x-4y)\to\boxed{\bold{B=6}}

<h2>METHOD 2:</h2>

Multiply everything on the right side of the equation using the distributive property and FOIL:

2(x+By)(x-4y)=\bigg((2)(x)+(2)(By)\bigg)(x-4y)\\\\=(2x+2By)(x-4y)=(2x)(x)+(2x)(-4y)+(2By)(x)+(2By)(-4y)\\\\=2x^2-8xy+2Bxy-8By^2=2x^2+(2B-8)xy-8By^2

Compare polynomials:

2x^2+4xy-48y^2=2x^2+(2B-8)xy-8By^2

From here we have two equations:

2B-8=4\ \text{and}\ -8B=-48

1)\\2B-8=4        <em>add 8 to both sides</em>

2B=12         <em>divide both sides by 2</em>

B=6

2)\\-8B=-48          <em>divide both sides by (-8)</em>

B=6

The results are the same. Therefore B = 6.

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the nth term of an AP is a+(n-1)d

a+(n-1)d=a+(n-1-1)d+7

a+nd-d=a+nd-2d+7

d=7

As the common difference is 7.

The only option given which is in an AP is the 4th option

Find the volume of the sphere with a diameter of 22 and round to the nearest 10
maksim [4K]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf Volume = 16728.8 \ units^3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Diameter = 22 units

Radius = 11 units

\rule[225]{225}{2}

\sf Volume = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3\\\\Volume = \frac{4}{3} (3.14)(11)^3\\\\Volume = \frac{4}{3} (3.14)(1331)\\\\Volume = \frac{4}{3} (4184.5)\\\\\bold{Volume = 16728.8 \ units^3}

\rule[225]{225}{2}

Hope this helped!

A room with a length of 270 cm and width 150 cm is to be covered with square tiles .What is the largest size of tiles to be used
Damm [24]

Find the greatest common factor of both numbers:

Factors for 150:

150: 1, 2, 5 , 6, 10, 15, 25, 30, 50, 75, 150

Factors for 270:

1, 2, 3, 5, 6 , 9, 10, 15, 18, 27, 30, 45, 54, 90, 135, 270

The largest number they both have in common is 30, so the largest tile could be 30 cm^2.
