James determined that these two expressions were equivalent expressions using the values of x = 4 and x = 6. Which statements are true? Check all that apply.

step-by-step explanation: examine the two-step equation.

−  

7

4

+  

x

4

= 2

which property of operations allows you to add the same constant term to both sides?

multiplication property of equality

division property of equality

addition property of equality

subtraction property of equality

a is 8.b is 10.c is 10.5. d is -.5

step-by-step explanation:

just minus the smallest number from the biggest.

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)

mrb

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