Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
a(n) = (-n)^3 where n = 1,2,3,...
Discussion:
The pattern 1,8,27, 64... is immediately recognizable as the the cube of the positive integers. But this question has a minus sign appearing before each entry, suggesting we try this:
- 1 = (-1)^3
-8 = (-2)^3
-27 = (-3)^3
-64 = (-4)^3
That's what the problem statement asked for
. The answer is equivalently
-1 * (n^3)
Thank you,
MrB
One way to do this is use the fact that the exterior angles of all polygons add up to 360 degrees
So an exterior angle of a regular octagon = 360 / 8 = 45 degrees.
So each interior angle = 180 - 45 = 135 degrees
so total measure of all angles in octagon = 8 * 135 = 1080 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:
Lets go step by step and factor out each as we go
first lets factor out a 3 since 3 is common in 9 and 3
3(3ab^2 - abc)
now lets factor out a since its common in both
3a(3b^2 - bc)
now lets factor out a b since its common in both
3ab(b - c)
we can't factor anything else out so we are done.
