Answer:

x = 49

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{x-16}{x+6} = \frac{3}{5} ( cross- multiply )

5(x - 16) = 3(x + 6) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

5x - 80 = 3x + 18 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

2x - 80 = 18 ( add 80 to both sides )

2x = 98 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 49

Simplify<br> a(cube)-1000b(cube)<br> 64a(cube)-125b(cube)
Elanso [62]

The simplification of a³ - 1000b³ and 64a³ - 125b³ is (a - 10b) × (a² + 10ab + 100b²) and 4a - 5b) • (16a² + 20ab + 25b²) respectively.

<h3>Simplification</h3>

Question 1: a³ - 1000b³

a³ - b³

= (a-b) × (a² +ab +b²)

  • 1000 is the cube of 10
  • a³ is the cube of a¹
  • b³ is the cube of b¹

So,

(a - 10b) × (a² + 10ab + 100b²)

Question 2: 64a³ - 125b³

a³ - b³

= (a-b) × (a² +ab +b²)

  • 64 is the cube of 4
  • 125 is the cube of 5
  • a³ is the cube of a¹
  • b³ is the cube of b¹

So,

(4a - 5b) • (16a² + 20ab + 25b²)
