To factor: Notice that when you factor it should turn out to be a binomial x binomial.

x^2-10x+25

When factoring you can look at the operation at the end right before the last digit. If the operation is positive then you will use the first operation in the binomial for factored number. For example the ending operation is positive and the first operation is subtraction so both binomial will be subtraction.

I know it would be factored (x-5)(x-5) and I can prove it by multiplying it out.

x^2 -5x-5x+25

x^2-10x+25

Determine the factors of 3x2 + 10x − 8. (Which is the right answer?)

VMariaS [17]

ANSWER

$(3x - 2)(x + 4)$

EXPLANATION

The given quadratic trinomial is

$3 {x}^{2} + 10x - 8$

Comparing to the general quadratic trinomial:

$a{x}^{2} + bx + c$

We have a=1, b=10 and c=-8

$ac = 3 \times - 8 = - 24$

The factors of -24 that adds up to 10 are -2 and 12.

We split the middle term to obtain;

$3 {x}^{2} + 12x - 2x- 8$

Factor;

$3x(x+ 4) - 2(x + 4)$

Factor further;

$(3x - 2)(x + 4)$

The last option is correct.

Answer:

$x^6+3x^3+3+\dfrac{1}{x^3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the pascal triangle to find the coefficients of the expasion of the cube. It holds that

$(x^2 + \dfrac{1}{x})^3=(x^2)^3+3(x^2)^2\dfrac{1}{x}+3x^2(\dfrac{1}{x})^2+(\dfrac{1}{x})^3\\\\=x^6+3x^4\dfrac{1}{x}+3x^2\dfrac{1}{x^2}+\dfrac{1}{x^3}\\\\=x^6+3x^3+3+\dfrac{1}{x^3}$
