Answer:

It would be True

Step-by-step explanation:

2+5x = -8

SUBTACT 2 on both sides and it would look like this:

5x = -8 - (2)

5X= -10

then DIVIDE 5 both side to get "X" ALONE,

x= -10/5

then divide -10 with 5

equal to:

x = -2

Which expression is the completely factored form of x6−64y3 ?

ss7ja [257]

We are given this

$x^6 -64y^3$

write it as the difference of cubes

$(x^2)^3 -(4y)^3$

use the formula for the difference of cubes

$(x^2-4y) ((x^2)^2+x^2*4y+(4y)^2)$

Now use the formula for the difference of squares as $4y = (2\sqrt{y} )^2$

$(x-2\sqrt{y}) (x+2\sqrt{y}) (x^4+4x^2y+16y^2)$

Round Ed to the nearthest tenth and answer now question

Vikki [24]

Answer:

$y = 9.1$

Step-by-step explanation:

y can be found using the Law of sines as explained below:

m < Y = 106°

m < X = 58°

WY = x = 8

WX = y = ?

Thus,

$\frac{x}{sin(X)} = \frac{y}{sin(Y)}$

$\frac{8}{sin(58)} = \frac{y}{sin(106)}$

$\frac{8}{0.848} = \frac{y}{0.961}$

Multiply both sides by 0.961 to solve for y

$\frac{8}{0.848}*0.961 = \frac{y}{0.961}*0.961$

$\frac{8*0.961}{0.848} = y$

$\frac{8*0.961}{0.848}*0.961 = y$

$9.07 = y$

$y = 9.1$ (to the nearest tenth)
