Factor the binomial completely: 125-r^3 So far I had this: 5^3-r^3=(5-r)(5^2+5r+r^2)

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it told me i was wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its correct

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

hmm well did you enter it as 5^2 or 25 :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but it might have asked you for complex factors also

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5^2. im doing my online homework and when i typed the first one in it said it was incorrect

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

always simplify everything...5^2 = 25 so you enter 25

OpenStudy (anonymous):
