Explaining the factoring for the difference of cubes |
2008-01-16 |
|
From Bill:
A student asked me where did the "difference of cubes" and "sum of cubes" come from. I did not have an answer for her. She is very bright and understands how they work but wanted to know where they derived from. Any help you can offer would be great. Thanks

20% profit |
2005-06-12 |
|
From Shawn:
If I know that I will be paid, say, $150.00, for labor, and I want to make
20% profit on what I pay for the labor, what is the calculation and factoring
process?
I see it like this
(x*.2)+x = 150
but I don't know how to factor it out from there.

polynomial functions |
1999-11-19 |
|
From Quinn:
- Without fully factoring the following show that they all have the same zeros:
I: x4-x2+2x+6
II: -x4+x2-2x-6
III: -4x4+4x2-8x-24
IV: 10x4-10x2+20x+60 - When P(x)=x3-3x2+5x+1 and G(x)=x3-2x2-x+10 are each divided by(x-a) the remainders are equal. At what coordinate point does the graph of P(x) intersect G(x)?

(1+z+z^2)^2 |
1998-09-10 |
|
From A.R.:
These questions deal with factoring. (1+z+z^2)^2 and (p^2-pq+q^2)^2 I partially understand the second line which would be 1+z^2+z^4+2z+2z^2+2z^3 but I don't understand where the 2 comes from in the second half of that line. p.s.(^2 means squared or cubed etc.) Please help me out A.S.A.P.!
I have a quiz on this tomorrow!
Thank-you,
A.R.
