The 3rd term of (a-b)4 is
fgiga [73]

The third term of the expansion is 6a^2b^2

<h3>How to determine the third term of the expansion?</h3>

The binomial term is given as

(a - b)^4

The r-th term of the expansion is calculated using

r-th term = C(n, r - 1) * x^(n - r + 1) * y^(r - 1)

So, we have

3rd term = C(4, 3 - 1) * (a)^(4 - 3 + 1) * (-b)^(3-1)

Evaluate the sum and the difference

3rd term = C(4, 2) * (a)^2 * (-b)^2

Evaluate the exponents

3rd term = C(4, 2) * a^2b^2

Evaluate the combination expression

3rd term = 6 * a^2b^2

Evaluate the product

3rd term = 6a^2b^2

Hence, the third term of the expansion is 6a^2b^2

11. Keng creates a painting on a rectangular canvas with a width that is four inches longer
GrogVix [38]

Part A

<h3>Answer:  h^2 + 4h</h3>

-------------------

Explanation:

We multiply the length and height to get the area

area = (length)*(height)

area = (h+4)*(h)

area = h(h+4)

area = h^2 + 4h .... apply the distributive property

The units for the area are in square inches.

===========================================================

Part B

<h3>Answer:  h^2 + 16h + 60</h3>

-------------------

Explanation:

If we add a 3 inch frame along the border, then we're adding two copies of 3 inches along the bottom side. The h+4 along the bottom updates to h+4+3+3 = h+10 along the bottom.

Similarly, along the vertical side we'd have the h go to h+3+3 = h+6

The old rectangle that was h by h+4 is now h+6 by h+10

Multiply these expressions to find the area

area = length*width

area = (h+6)(h+10)

area = x(h+10) ..... replace h+6 with x

area = xh + 10x .... distribute

area = h( x ) + 10( x )

area = h( h+6 ) + 10( h+6 ) .... plug in x = h+6

area = h^2+6h + 10h+60 .... distribute again twice more

area = h^2 + 16h + 60

You can also use the box method or the FOIL rule as alternative routes to find the area.

The units for the area are in square inches.

The wading pool shown is a trapezoidal prism with a total volume of 286 cubic feet. What is the missing dimension? First base: 8
harkovskaia [24]
To find the missing dimension you will use the formula for finding the volume of a prism and solve for the missing dimension.  In this case 2ft is how deep the pool is and you will solve for the width of the pool.

V = Bh, where B is the area of the base.  In this case, use the area of a trapezoid formula.

286 = 1/2h(8 +13)2
<u>286</u> = <u>21h</u>
21      21
h = 13.6

The width of the wading pool is approximately 13.6 feet.
