Answer:
(x - 1) (x + 1) (x - 4) (x + 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
actor the following:
x^4 - 17 x^2 + 16
x^4 - 17 x^2 + 16 = (x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16:
(x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16
The factors of 16 that sum to -17 are -1 and -16. So, (x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16 = (x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 16):
(x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 16)
x^2 - 16 = x^2 - 4^2:
(x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 4^2)
Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 4^2 = (x - 4) (x + 4):
(x - 4) (x + 4) (x^2 - 1)
x^2 - 1 = x^2 - 1^2:
(x^2 - 1^2) (x - 4) (x + 4)
Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 1^2 = (x - 1) (x + 1):
Answer: (x - 1) (x + 1) (x - 4) (x + 4)
7 is the answer. hope this helps!
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have equal slopes.
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = 5x + 1 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 5
Rearrange 2y - 10x + 3 = 0 into this form
Add 10x to both sides
2y = 10x ( subtract 3 from both sides )
2y = 10x - 3 ( divide all terms by 2 )
y = 5x - 
← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 5
Since both lines have a slope of 5 then they are parallel.
This is a good question!!
Any number that ends with a 0 or a 5 would be a multiple of 5 because as you multipy numbers by 5 you start to see a pattern in the ones place of 5,0,5,0,5,0,5,0,... And so on forever
