Tomas learned that the product of the polynomials (a + b)(a2 – ab + b2) was a special pattern that would result in a sum of cubes, a3 + b3. His teacher put four products on the board and asked the class to identify which product would result in a sum of cubes if a = 2x and b = 1.Which product should Tomas choose?

A) (2x + 1)(2x2 + 2x – 1)
B) (2x + 1)(4x3 + 2x – 1)
C) (2x + 1)(4x2 – 2x + 1)
D) (2x + 1)(2x2 – 2x + 1)

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: General form: a^3 + b^3 = (a + b) (a^2 -ab +b^2)

Now replace with a= 2x, b = 1

(2x)^3 + 1^3 = (2x + 1) [ (2x)^2 -(2x)(1) + 1^2) = (2x + 1) (4x^2 - 2x + 1)

Therefore, the answer is the option C)
Answer 2
Answer: (a+b)(a²-ab+b²)
(2x+1)((2x)²-(2x)(1)+1²)
(2x+1)(4x²-2x+1)


C is answer

Two students were asked to use estimation strategies to find a reasonable solution to this question: Darrell has $1,990 saved and wants to buy a motorcycle. He earns $10 per hour and he works for 39 hours. Estimate how much money, Darrell has left after buying a $2,200 motorcycle. From the choices below, select the student with a more reasonable solution.

Answers

Answer:

1990+(10h)-2200

or

1990+(10x39)-2200

Step-by-step explanation:

he already has 1990

He earns $10 per hour

he works for 39 hours

$2,200 needed for a motorcycle

1990+(10h)-2200

or

1990+(10x39)-2200

Which trinomials are perfect square trinomials?Choose exactly two answers that are correct.


a2 + 4a + 16


a2 + 14a + 49


a2 + 15a + 75


a2 + 26a + 169

Answers

The exactly two answers are correct are a² + 14a + 49 and a² + 26a + 169.

What are trinomials?

The condition for the perfect trinomials is if the coefficient of a² = 1 and If you divide the middle number coefficient by 2 and you square it you get the last term.

For all the options, the coefficient of a² = 1.

a² + 4a + 16.

Coefficient of a = 4.

4/2 = 2

2² = 4, this does not equal the last term so it is not a perfect square trinomial.

a² + 14a + 49.

Coefficient of a = 14.

14/2 = 7

7² = 49, this is equal to the last term so it is a perfect square trinomial.

And the perfect square is (a +7)²

Similarly, if you test the last option.

a² + 26a + 169.

Coefficient of a = 26.

26/2 = 13

13² = 169, this is equal to the last term so it is a perfect square trinomial.

And the perfect square is (a +13)²

The only two options are: a² + 14a + 49 and a² + 26a + 169. Other options do not pass this test.

You can know a perfect square trinomial:

i) if the coefficient of a² = 1.

ii) If you divide the middle number coefficient by 2 and you square it you get the last term.

Take for example the first option: 

For all the options, the coefficient of a² = 1

a² + 4a + 16.

Coefficient of a = 4.
4/2 = 2
2² = 4, this does not equal the last term so it is not a perfect square trinomial.


a² + 14a + 49.

Coefficient of a = 14.
14/2 = 7
7² = 49, this is equal the last term so it is a perfect square trinomial.
And the perfect square is (a +7)²


Similarly if you test the last option.

a² + 26a + 169.

Coefficient of a = 26.
26/2 = 13
13² = 169, this is equal the last term so it is a perfect square trinomial.
And the perfect square is (a +13)²

So the only two options are: a² + 14a + 49 and a² + 26a + 169.

Other options do not pass this test.

multi step equation, please solve ill give brainliest (with steps)

Answers

Answer:

The answer is x=-17/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The Steps:

-8 + 5(1 + x) = 2x - 20

-8 + 5 + 5x = 2x - 20

-3 + 5x = 2x - 20

-3 + 3x = -20

3x = -17

x = -17/3

How do you divide a fraction

Answers

It's always best to simply multiply by the reciprocal
For example:
(2)/(3) / (3)/(4) 
The reciprocal basically means to "flip" the fraction so...
3/4 -----> 4/3
(Only flip ONE of the fractions not both of them...you can choose either fraction for flip you'd still get the same answer) 
Now instead of a division problem we have a multiplication problem now our problem looks like this: 
(2)/(3) * (4)/(3)
Now we simply multiply across
(2*4=8)/(3*3=9)
As you see above I multiplied across to get a final answer of 
(8)/(9) 

And that's how you divide a fraction.  
5       6

7        8

do the reciprocal of 6/8 OR 5/7.
5        8               40           20/21
                 =              and simplify        
7        6               42            

3x + 5y = 7

Both x and y have to be the same numbers!

Answers

Simultaneous Equations:

(4x + 3y = 2)×(5)

-9x - 15y = -21
20x+15y =10        (-15y and and+15y cancels out)

11x = -11
(11x)/(11)(-11)/(11) (11 and 11 cancels out)
x= -1
substitute the x we found into either original expressions

3(-1) + 5y = 7
-3 + 5y = 7
+3 -3+ 5y = 7+ 3
5y = 10
(5y)/(5)=(10)/(5) (5 and 5 cancels out)
y=2 
Check it!
4(-1)+3(2) = 2
-4 + 6 = 2
2 = 2

3(-1) + 5(2) = 7
-3 + 10 = 7
7 = 7

x= -1
y= 2
