Given:
The pair of expressions in the options.
To find:
The two expressions are equivalent for any value of y.
Solution:
Two expressions are equivalent for any value of y, iff they are equivalent.
Clearly, 
is not equivalent to 
or 
. So, options A and B are incorrect.
The expression 
is not equivalent to 
. So, option C is incorrect.
The expression is equivalent to 
.
Therefore, the correct option is D.
In order to use the remainder theorem, you need to have some idea what to divide by. The rational root theorem tells you rational roots will be from the list derived from the factors of the constant term, {±1, ±5}. When we compare coefficients of odd power terms to those of even power terms, we find their sums are equal, which means -1 is a root and (x +1) is a factor.
Dividing that from the cubic, we get a quotient of x² +6x +5 (and a remainder of zero). We recognize that 6 is the sum of the factors 1 and 5 of the constant term 5, so the factorization is
... = (x +1)(x +1)(x +5)
... = (x +1)²(x +5)
_____
The product of factors (x +a)(x +b) will be x² + (a+b)x + ab. That is, the factorization can be found by looking for factors of the constant term (ab) that add to give the coefficient of the linear term (a+b). The numbers found can be put directly into the binomial factors to make (x+a)(x+b).
When we have 1·5 = 5 and 1+5 = 6, we know the factorization of x²+6x+5 is (x+1)(x+5).
It would be the Associative property of addition i believe <span />
(2/3)x = 10
(3/2)(2/3)x = 10(3/2)
x = 30/2 = 15
The answer should be
12ft^3
12cm^3
12yd^3
12in^3
