Please Help :) ~
whats the question?
sorry, i dont know how to do that
ok neither do i lol
lol. do u know if u can help me with this? Compare and Contrast. Below are two sets of points. Find the slopes between the two points and compare them. Choose the statement that is true about the values of the slopes. Set #1 Set #2 (2, 4) and (1, 1) (4, 6) and (2, 7) The slope of Set #1 is smaller than the slope of Set #2. The slope of Set #1 is larger than the slope of Set #2. The slope of Set #1 is the same as the slope of Set #2. None of the statements above describes slopes of sets shown.
oh, nope sorry i suck in math
$$ \cfrac{n}{m^a} \implies \cfrac{n}{1} \times \cfrac{1}{m^a} \implies \cfrac{n}{1} \times m^{-a} \implies nm^{-a} $$
so if you just take a peek at \(\large \frac{1}{8} y^2 \) if you multiply them, what would they give you?
could i turn one eight as a decimal (.125)
I don't think it's what's required in this case, because you're dealing with exponentials
just bear in mind that $$ \cfrac{1}{anything^{\color{red}{exp}}} \implies anything^{\color{red}{-exp}} $$
cross multiply ?
yes
\[\frac{ 1 }{ 64 }\]
hmmm
hold on, ahem, I guess we'll stick with 1/8 :/
ok, sorry lol
you have a common factor, see it?
y ?
well, \(\large y^2\)
$$ 125x^3y^2-\cfrac{1}{8}y^2\\ y^2\pmatrix{125x^3-\cfrac{1}{8}} $$
Ah, ok
so, if you keep an eye on 125, 125 = \(5^3\) and if you take a peek at 8, 8 = \(2^3\) and well, 1 is really \(1^3\)
ok.
$$ 125x^3y^2-\cfrac{1}{8}y^2\\ y^2\pmatrix{125x^3-\cfrac{1}{8}}\\ y^2\pmatrix{(\color{red}{5}x)^3-\pmatrix{\cfrac{\color{red}{1}}{\color{red}{8}}}^3}\\ $$
what is your opinion from B.) can you check it ?
Me or jdoe?
who are the asker
Im the asker.
so, what you really have is \(\large (a^3 - b^3) \) type of binomial
ok @jdoe0001 but can you prove it now here with calculi ?
.... ahemm, not sure :/
@jhonyy9 do you think the answer is B ?
dunno, what do you think? \( (a^3 - b^3) = (a^2-b^2)(a^2+ab+b^2) \)
I was thinking B.
b) would suggest \(a^2-ab+b^2\)
:/
which is good for \( (a^3+b^3)\)
Bleh, no clue :/
@jdoe0001 can you say me why a^3 + b^3 ? and why not minus ?
well, the original expression factored out with a "-" :)
ok but there not is factored out - y
\( y^2\pmatrix{(\color{red}{5x})^3-\pmatrix{\cfrac{\color{blue}{1}}{\color{blue}{8}}}^3}\\ (\color{red}{a}^3 - \color{blue}{b}^3) = (\color{red}{a}^2-\color{blue}{b}^2)(\color{red}{a}^2+\color{red}{a}\color{blue}{b}+\color{blue}{b}^2) \) so, expand away, see what you get :)
not is right check it please
ohh yea, you're right,, my bad
Soo, it is B ? 0_o
\( y^2\pmatrix{(\color{red}{5x})^3-\pmatrix{\cfrac{\color{blue}{1}}{\color{blue}{8}}}^3}\\ (\color{red}{a}^3 - \color{blue}{b}^3) = (\color{red}{a}^2-\color{blue}{b})(\color{red}{a}+\color{red}{a}\color{blue}{b}+\color{blue}{b}^2) \)
darn, missed one :/
Its ok. :)
this is wrong again too
yes one sec
Ugh, 7 more 4 me yippie -_-
\( y^2\pmatrix{(\color{red}{5x})^3-\pmatrix{\cfrac{\color{blue}{1}}{\color{blue}{8}}}^3}\\ (\color{red}{a}^3 - \color{blue}{b}^3) = (\color{red}{a}-\color{blue}{b})(\color{red}{a}^2+\color{red}{a}\color{blue}{b}+\color{blue}{b}^2) \)
hjeheh
@jdoe0001 comen please you know the right way but there not is right 1/8
ahemm, ohh ...shoot... well,, I surely am glad you're here to pick up my typos @jhonyy9 heheh I'd have been doing some more correcting later :), thanks
heheeh
\( y^2\pmatrix{(\color{red}{5x})^3-\pmatrix{\cfrac{\color{blue}{1}}{\color{blue}{2}}}^3}\\ (\color{red}{a}^3 - \color{blue}{b}^3) = (\color{red}{a}-\color{blue}{b})(\color{red}{a}^2+\color{red}{a}\color{blue}{b}+\color{blue}{b}^2) \)
anyhow @PatrickJordon , tis 2 thus 8 = 2^3 :)
@jdoe0001 okey tnx :)
so, from the expansion of (a^3 - b^3), it produces a 2nd binomial with a + all around, so that rules out a) and b)
I was bout to ask if that was gonna happen lol xD
a times b, or 5x times 1/2, is not "5x" as c) is suggesting
Okey!
anyhow there :)
