- Make Sense? In Exercises 135–138, determine whether each statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning. 135. Knowing the difference between factors and terms is important: In (3x?y)“, I can distribute the exponent 2 on each factor, but in (3x² + y)', I cannot do the same thing on each term. 136. I used the FOIL method to find the product of x + 5 and x + 2x + 1. 137. Instead of using the formula for the square of a binomial sum, I prefer to write the binomial sum twice and then apply the FOIL method. 138. Special-product formulas have patterns that make their multiplications quicker than using the FOIL method.arrow_forwardRationalize the numerator of x+10 – 100 Paragraph A.arrow_forwardMar 26, 10:23:55 AM What must the missing numerator be, given the following simplified expression: x - 8 x2 - 3x - 70 x2 + 2x - 80 ? 1 x + 7 You may leave your answer in factored form.

If the statement is false, make the necessary change(s) to produce a true statement. 129. 9x? + 15x + 25 = (3x + 5) 130. x - 27 = (x – 3)(x² + 6x + 9) 131. x³ – 64 = (x – 4)3 132. 4x2 – 121 = (2x – 11)arrow_forwardWrite 3 + 5 +7 + 9 using sigma notationarrow_forward

I use the same ideas to multiply (V2 + 5) (V2 + 4) that I did to find the binomial product (x + 5)(x + 4). 136. I used a special-product formula and simplified as follows: (V2 + V5)? = 2 + 5 = 7. 137. In some cases when I multiply a square root expression and its conjugate, the simplified product contains a radical. 138. I use the fact that 1 is the multiplicative identity to both rationalize denominators and rewrite rational expressions with a common denominator.arrow_forward8x 6x 7. 6.arrow_forward
