Answer:

(625 • (x4)) - 28y4

54x4 - 28y4 3.1 Factoring: 625x4-256y4

Theory : A difference of two perfect squares, A2 - B2 can be factored into (A+B) • (A-B)

Proof : (A+B) • (A-B) =

A2 - AB + BA - B2 =

A2 - AB + AB - B2 =

A2 - B2Note : AB = BA is the commutative property of multiplication.

Note : - AB + AB equals zero and is therefore eliminated from the expression.

Check : 625 is the square of 25

Check : 256 is the square of 16

Check : x4 is the square of x2

Check : y4 is the square of y2

Factorization is : (25x2 + 16y2) • (25x2 - 16y2) 3.2 Factoring: 25x2 - 16y2

Check : 25 is the square of 5

Check : 16 is the square of 4

Check : x2 is the square of x1

Check : y2 is the square of y1

Factorization is : (5x + 4y) • (5x - 4y)this is the answer: (25x2 + 16y2) •(5x + 4y) • (5x - 4y)

An extended ratio compares three or more numbers. In the extended ratio a:b:c, we have the ratio A:b,c and a:c

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

see the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

An extended ratio compares three or more numbers.

In the extended ratio a:b:c

The ratio of the first two numbers is a:b (you can write a to b or a/b)

The ratio of the last two numbers is b:c (you can write b to c or b/c)

The ratio of the first and last numbers are a:c (you can write a to c or a/c)

Write an equation in point-slope form of the line that passes through the point (−3,6) and has a slope of 5.

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Point slope form is y - y1 = m(x - x1)

where m = the slope of the line and (x1, y1) is a point on the line.

Here m = 5, x1 = -3 and y1 = 6.

So we have:

y - 6 = 5( x - (-3))

y - 6 = 5(x + 3) (Answer)

A manufacturer finds that the revenue generated by selling x units of a certain commodity is given by the function R(x) = 60x −

bonufazy [111]

R(x) = 60x - 0.2x^2

The revenue is maximum when the derivative of R(x) = 0.
dR(x)/dx = 60 - 0.4x = 0
0.4x = 60
x = 60/0.4 = 150

Therefore, maximum revenue is 60(150) - 0.2(150)^2 = 9000 - 4500 = $4,500
Maximum revenue is $4,500 and the number of units is 150 units
