f(x) = 64x³ - 125
Multiply each term in the second factor by each term in the first factor
= 4x(16x² + 20x + 25) - 5(16x² + 20 x + 25)
=64x³ + 80x² + 100x - 80x² - 100x - 125
= 64x³ - 125 ← difference of cubes
Answer:
x = -0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
From your last step:
6.8x + 9.3 = -2.6 - 17x
We have two terms with x in them on different sides of the equation, so we want to bring the 'x terms' over to the same side.
Add 17x to both sides of the equation.
6.8x + 17x + 9.3 = -2.6
Collect like terms
23.8x + 9.3 = -2.6
Subtract 9.3 from both sides
23.8x = -2.6 - 9.3
23.8x = -11.9
Divide both sides by 23.8
x = -0.5
Answer:
$125
Step-by-step explanation:
if there was a discount of 20%, the sales price is 100 - 20 = 80% of the original price
let a = original price
this equation can be used to represent the question
a x 0.8 = 100 ]]divide both sides by 0.8
a = 100 / 0.8 = 125
See the attached picture for 2 options for question 1 and 2 depending on how the fractions are written.
Question #3:
17 = -13 - 8x
Add 13 to each side:
30 = -8x
Divide both sides by -8:
X = 30 / -8
X = -3 3/4
I think it's 1/2, which is 6/12.
5/12 plus 1/12 equals 6/12. 6 is half of 12, so you one half. I hoped this helped.
