Complete Question:

Emily and Zach have two different polynomials to multiply: Polynomial product A: (4x2 – 4x)(x2 – 4) Polynomial product B: (x2 + x – 2)(4x2 – 8x) They are trying to determine if the products of the two polynomials are the same. But they disagree about how to solve this problem.

Answer:

A = B

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>See comment for complete question</em>

Given

A: (4x^2 - 4x)(x^2 - 4)

B: (x^2 + x - 2)(4x^2 - 8x)

Required

Determine how they can show if the products are the same or not

To do this, we simply factorize each polynomial

For, Polynomial A: We have:

A: (4x^2 - 4x)(x^2 - 4)

Factor out 4x

A: 4x(x - 1)(x^2 - 4)

Apply difference of two squares on x^2 - 4

A: 4x(x - 1)(x - 2)(x+2)

For, Polynomial B: We have:

B: (x^2 + x - 2)(4x^2 - 8x)

Expand x^2 + x - 2

B:(x^2 + 2x - x - 2)(4x^2- 8x)

Factorize:

B:(x(x + 2) -1(x + 2))(4x^2- 8x)

Factor out x + 2

B:(x -1) (x + 2)(4x^2- 8x)

Factor out 4x

B:(x -1) (x + 2)4x(x- 2)

Rearrange

B: 4x(x - 1)(x - 2)(x+2)

The simplified expressions are:

A: 4x(x - 1)(x - 2)(x+2) and  

B: 4x(x - 1)(x - 2)(x+2)

Hence, both polynomials are equal

A = B

write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the line y=-3/7-15 and that passes through the point (9,2)
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First substitue the coordinates to the equation so

x=9, y=2

you would get

2=-3/7(9) + b

we put b because we are trying to find the new slope

multiply the two numbers above

2=-3/6/7 + b

subtract the whole number from both sides

b= 5/6/7

in equation would be

y= -3/7 + 5/6/7

Let me know if there is an error.

Jack plotted the graph below to show the relationship between the temperature of his city and the number of ice cream cones he s
timurjin [86]

Answer:

(a) The amount of ice cream increase as temperature increases

(b)

y = 2x + 5 --- equation

y = 5 --- y intercept

m = 2 --- slope

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for graph

Solving (a): The relationship between the variables

From the attached graph, the dots on the graph increases towards up-right direction. This implies that there is a positive correlation between the variables.

In other words;

The amount of ice cream increase as temperature increases

Solving (b): The line of best fit

First, we draw a line through the points (the line should have almost equal points on both sides; see attachment 2).

From (2), we select any 2 points on the line:

(x_1,y_1) = (15,35)

(x_2,y_2) = (0,5)

The slope (m) is:

m = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

m = \frac{5-35}{0-15}

m = \frac{-30}{-15}

m = 2

So, the line of best fit is:

y = m(x - x_1) + y_1

Substitute known values:

y = 2(x - 0) + 5

y = 2(x) + 5

y = 2x + 5

The y-intercept is when x=0

So, we have:

y = 2*0 + 5

y = 0 + 5

y = 5
