Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of two perfect cubes breaks down into two factors, the first is the sum of their cube roots, and the second is made up of the square of the first root minus the product of both roots plus the square of the second root.
The difference of two perfect cubes is decomposed into two factors, the first is the difference of their cube roots, and the second is made up of the square of the first root plus the product of both roots plus the square of the second root.
Answer:negative case : 2.5x - 6.8 = -12.9
positive case : 2.5 - 6.8 = 12.9
step 2 : 6.8
step 3 : dividing by 2.5
step 4 : x = 7.88
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's apply the Law of Cosines here. We want the measure of the angle opposite the side with length 16.
Call that angle C.
Then 16^2 = 36^2 + 28^2 - 2(36)(28)cos C.
Solving for C: cos C = 16^2 - 36^2 - 28^2
------------------------- = 0.904, and C = 0.44 rad
-2(28)(36) or C = 25.21 degrees
So each of the 2 equal angles shown has the measure 25.21 degrees.
Unfortunately, I don't know the direction we should go from this point on.
