Gita is buying a pizza for herself and her friends. The pizza has 8 slices. If 2 people eat the pizza, each person will get 4 slices, and if 4 people eat the pizza, each person will get 2 slices.
Does this situation represent an inverse variation? If so, what are the independent and dependent variables?

i believe the correct answer is b.

answer: i don't understand it

step-by-step explanation: sorry

m∠a is 90°

m∠b is 40°

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:   (7x + 6y) ( 49x^2 - 42xy + 36y^2)

discussion:

in general, the factorization of a^3 + b^3 is

a^3 + b^ 3 = (a + b) ( a^2 - ab + b^2)

in our case note that 343 = 7^3 and 216 = 6^3 so the equation becomes:

343x^3 + 216y^3 = (7x)^3 + (6y)^3

if you think of a (above) as 7x and b as 6y the factorization becomes

343x^3 + 216y^3 =

((7x + 6y) (   (7x)^2 - 7x*6y + (6y)^2)   =

(7x + 6y) ( 49x^2 - 42xy + 36y^2)

you,

mrb

(a + b) (a^2 - a b + b^2)
