Hi Mr. Napoli, sorry this is kind of late, because I forgot to post this yesterday, and I have it today posted. Kinda late *rolls eyes* but this is how you do #6.

x3 + 5x + 6x =

(x2 + 3x)(x + 2) =

x3 + 2x2 + 3x2 + 6x =

x(x + 3)(x+2)

The x2 is X Squared. And x3 is X Cubed. Because computers wont show that, unless it is a specific program.

31) Xsquared-2x-15=0
(x-5)(x+3)
x-5=0 x+3= 0
+5 +5 -3 -3
x=5 x = -3

ANSWER- (2) 5,-3

This is from Navneet Singh:

pgs 1-2

9. LCD=15 a/3 + 2a/5

5(a)/5(3) + 3(2a)/3(5)=

5a/15 + 6a/15 = 11a/15

11a/15 is the answer

this is from navneet singh

pgs 3-4

Q: If 0.00037 is expressed as
3.7 x 10 to the power of n,
what is the value of n???

A: 0.00037
-------->
negative value because we are moving the decimal to the right.

0.00037

- - - - <--- 4 spaces to the right

answer is n = -4

CHECK: 3.7 X 10 TO THE PWR OF -4 = = = = O.OOO37

Mr. Napoli This is Tiquan again I cant make a fraction on the computer so Ill do # 2 if you cant understand #10.
2.Factor: x squared - y squared
(x+y) (x-y)
check: x.x=x squared
y.-y=-y squared

hello mr.napoli it is jonathan kramer.. i am ganna do #16
express 5a/6 - 4a/9 as a single fraction in simplest form.

5a/6 - 4a/9

15a/18 - 8a/18 = 7a/18

thank you jonathan

#2

(x-y)x+y)

check: x-y
x+y
------
X2-Y2

im kinda late but here is my problem #4(Factor Completely) x^2+5x-24
1.Ok first you find the GCF which there is none.
2.Then you look for the diffrence of perfect squares which there are none.
3.Then you look for factors of -24 that will equal +5x
4.Factors of -24 that will equal to +5x are 8 times -3.
5. Now you make to seperate equations since you have a x^2 so (x+8)(x-3) and thats the answer

christiane yambao pd.8 #9
sorry this is late.....
express as a single fraction in simplest form: a/3 + 2a/5
1) lcd:15
(5)a/3=5a/15
(3)2a/5=6a/15
5a/15 + 6a/15=11a/15
11a/15 is the answer
