Answer:

Part A: The length of each side is 3x-2 units long.

Part B: The dimensions are 5x-4 and 5x+4 units long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

--> 9x^2-12x+4

--> Multiply 9 times 4 to see the factors of that product

--> 9 times4 = 36

Factors of 36 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36

Use the factor 6 and make it negative so -6

add another -6

Keep in mind that it is -6x

--> 9x^2-6x-6x+4

Separate the four terms into two different binomials

--> 9x^2-6x  and -6x+4

Factor the binomials

With 9x^2-6x you can factor a 3x

So it will 3x(3x-2)

Do the same thing with -6x+4

You can factor out a -2

-2(3x-2)

The reason you factor out a -2 and not 2 is because it has to be same so in this case it is (3x-2)

Take the two numbers that you factored and put them to make an expression so (3x-2)

--> (3x-2)(3x-2) or (3x-2)^2

3x-2 is the length of each side so it is 3x-2 units long

Part B:

-->25x^2-16y^2

Use the difference of squares

take the square root of 25x^2

that is 5x

take the square root of 16y^2

that is 4y

write it in this way (5x+4y)(5x-4y)

These are the dimensions of the rectangle

Find the cube root.
nignag [31]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  (d)  5a²

Step-by-step explanation:

  \displaystyle\sqrt[3]{125a^6}=\sqrt[3]{5^3a^6}=\sqrt[3]{(5a^2)^3}=\boxed{5a^2}

__

The applicable rules of exponents are ...

  (a^b)^c = a^(bc)

  ∛a = a^(1/3)

ANSWER ASAP!! Find the distance between the points (2, 8) and (-1, 9).
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the distance (d) using the distance formula

d = √ (x₂ - x₁ )² + (y₂ - y₁ )²

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (2, 8) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 1, 9)

d = \sqrt{(-1-2)^2+(9-8)^2} = \sqrt{(-3)^2+1^2} = \sqrt{9+1} = \sqrt{10} → C
