How do you factor 125-x^3?

Step-by-step explanation:

We have

125 - x {}^{3}

First, 125 is a perfect cube because

5 \times 5 \times 5 = 125

and

x^3 is a perfect cube because

x \times  x \times x = x {}^{3}

so we can use the difference of cubes identity

( {x}^{3}  -  {y}^{3} ) = (x - y)( {x}^{2}  + xy +  {y}^{2} )

Let say we have two perfect cubes:

64 because 8×8×8=64

and 27 because 3×3×3=27 and let subtract

64 - 27

we know that

64 - 27 = 37

but using the difference of cubes identity we should get the same thing.

Remeber cube root of 64 is 4 and cube root of 27 is 3 so we have

(4 - 3)( {4}^{2}  + 4(3) + 3 {}^{2} )

1(16 + 12 + 9) = 1(37) = 37

So the difference of cubes works for real numbers. This is a good way to help remeber the identity using real numbers.

Back on to the topic,

we know that 5 is cube root of 125 and x is the cube root of x^3 so we have

(5 - x)( {5}^{2}  + 5x +  {x}^{2} ) =

(5 - x)(25 + 5x +  {x}^{2} )

Teresa is playing a video game. She earns 10 points when she completes Level 1. Each time she completes a level, she earns three
lesya [120]

Answer: 7290

Step-by-step explanation:

Three times is asking you to multiply the points before them by three. Level one, as we know is 10. Then, to get level two's points, you would multiply 10 by 3, to get 30, & so on.

Level One:10

Level Two: 10x3=30

Level Three: 30x3=90

Level Four: 90x3=270

Level Five: 270x3=810

Level Six: 810x3=2430

Level Seven: 2430x3= 7290

*** If you are still confused, comment on this question, & I will be happy to walk you through the whole question. ***

Use y = mx + b to determine the equation of a line with a slope -5, passing through the point (-2,4).
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

y=-5x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

In y=mx+b, m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x is 0). y and x remain the same but m and b are replaced with numbers.

Given that the slope is -5, plug it into y=mx+b:

y=-5x+b

Now, to solve for b, plug in the given point (-2,4):

4=-5(-2)+b\\4=10+b

Subtract 10 from both sides to isolate b:

4-10=10+b-10\\-6=b

Therefore, the y-intercept of this line is -6. Plug this back into y=-5x+b as b:

y=-5x-6

I hope this helps!
