Factor -24a3b3c3 - 84a4b2c.

sammy [17]

Answer:

-12a³b²c ( 2bc² + 7a)

Step-by-step explanation:

To factorize, we must separate the highest common factors between the products that make up the given expression. To get the highest common factor between the two products,

-24a3b3c3 = -2 * 2 *2 * 3 * a³ *b² *b * c² * c

- 84a4b2c = -2 * 2 *3 * 7 * a³ * a *b² * c

The common elements are -2, 2, 3, a³, b², c

The product of the common elements

= -12a³b²c

Hence, factorizing

-24a3b3c3 - 84a4b2c = -12a³b²c ( 2bc² + 7a)

Use implicit differentiation to find the points where the parabola defined by x2−2xy+y2+4x−8y+20=0 has horizontal and vertical t

Komok [63]

Answer:

The parabola has a horizontal tangent line at the point (2,4)

The parabola has a vertical tangent line at the point (1,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Ir order to perform the implicit differentiation, you have to differentiate with respect to x. Then, you have to use the conditions for horizontal and vertical tangent lines.

-To obtain horizontal tangent lines, the condition is:

$\frac{dy}{dx}=0$ (The slope is zero)

--To obtain vertical tangent lines, the condition is:

$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{0}$ (The slope is undefined, therefore the denominator is set to zero)

Derivating respect to x:

$\frac{d(x^{2}-2xy+y^{2}+4x-8y+20)}{dx} = \frac{d(x^{2})}{dx}-2\frac{d(xy)}{dx}+\frac{d(y^{2})}{dx}+4\frac{dx}{dx}-8\frac{dy}{dx}+\frac{d(20)}{dx}$ = $2x -2(y+x\frac{dy}{dx})+2y\frac{dy}{dx}+4-8\frac{dy}{dx}= 0$

Solving for dy/dx:

$\frac{dy}{dx}(-2x+2y-8)=-2x+2y-4\\\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{2y-2x-4}{2y-2x-8}$

Applying the first conditon (slope is zero)

$\frac{2y-2x-4}{2y-2x-8}=0\\2y-2x-4=0$

Solving for y (Adding 2x+4, dividing by 2)

y=x+2 (I)

Replacing (I) in the given equation:

$x^{2}-2x(x+2)+(x+2)^{2}+4x-8(x+2)+20=0\\x^{2}-2x^{2}-4x+x^{2} +4x+4+4x-8x-16+20=0\\-4x+8=0\\x=2$

Replacing it in (I)

y=(2)+2

y=4

Therefore, the parabola has a horizontal tangent line at the point (2,4)

Applying the second condition (slope is undefined where denominator is zero)

2y-2x-8=0

Adding 2x+8 both sides and dividing by 2:

y=x+4(II)

Replacing (II) in the given equation:

$x^{2}-2x(x+4)+(x+4)^{2}+4x-8(x+4)+20=0\\x^{2}-2x^{2}-8x+x^{2}+8x+16+4x-8x-32+20=0\\-4x+4=0\\x=1$

Replacing it in (II)

y=1+4

y=5

The parabola has vertical tangent lines at the point (1,5)

Which pair of expressions is equivalent using the Associative Property of Multiplication? (3 points) 5(3a ⋅ 4) = 15a ⋅ 20 5(3a ⋅

cluponka [151]

Answer:

5(3a ⋅ 4) = (5 ⋅ 3a) ⋅ 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The Associative Property is applied to two types of operations: addition and multiplication. This property indicates that, when there are three or more terms in these operations, the result does not depend on the way in which the terms are grouped.

In this sense, the associative property for the sum is mathematically given by:

$(x+y)+z=x+(y+z)$

and for the multiplication by:

$(xy)z=x(yz)$

Now, let:

$x=5\\y=3a\\z=4$

Using the Associative Property of Multiplication:

$(xy)z=x(yz)\\\\Replacing\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}values\\\\(5\cdot 3a)\cdot4=5(3a\cdot 4)$

Therefore the equivalent expressions are:

5(3a ⋅ 4) = (5 ⋅ 3a) ⋅ 4
