Hello oddworld7836!

\huge \boxed{\mathbb{QUESTION} \downarrow}

Factor the expression into an equivalent form 12y² - 75.

\large \boxed{\mathfrak{Answer \: with \: Explanation} \downarrow}

12 y ^ { 2 } - 75

By observing the expression, we can see that, 3 is the only common factor in both the terms of the expression. So, take the common factor 3 out.

12 y ^ { 2 } - 75 \\  = 3\left(4y^{2}-25\right)

Now, look at (4y² - 25). They don't have any common factors but they appear in the form of the algebraic identity ⇨ a² - b² = (a + b) (a - b). Here,

  • a² = 4, a = 2 (√a² = ✓4 = 2)
  • b² = 25, b = 5 (√b² = ✓25 = 5)

So, the (4y² + 25) becomes...

(4 {y}^{2}  - 25) \\  = \left(2y-5\right)\left(2y+5\right)

Now, bring the 3 (common factor) & rewrite the complete expression.

12 y ^ { 2 } - 75 \\  =  \boxed{ \boxed{ \bf \: 3\left(2y-5\right)\left(2y+5\right) }}

We can't further simplify it. Also, remember that the simplified form of an expression is equivalent to the expression. So, 3 (2y - 5) (2y + 5) is equivalent to 12y² - 75.

The dnsity of aluminum is 2. 70 g/mL. if the mass of a piece of aluminum is 244 grams, what is the volume of the aluminum
joja [24]
27.0 g

Explanation:
The density of a substance tells you the mass of exactly one unit of volume of said substance.
In your case, aluminium is said to have a density of
density Al
=
2.70 g
.

This tells you that every
1 mL
of aluminium has a mass of
2.70 g
.
All you have to do now is use the density of aluminium as a conversion factor to go from cubic centimenters of aluminium to grams
