8- What is a common factor of both $$x^2 – 2x – 8$$ and $$x^2 – 6x + 8?$$_________

9- $$\frac{1}{6b^2} + \frac{1}{6b} = \frac{1}{b^2}$$, then $$b =$$ ? __________

10- If two angles in a triangle measure 53 degrees and 45 degrees, what is the value of the third angle? __________

## Answers:

1- $$x^2+12x+35$$
Use FOIL (First, Out, In, Last) $$(x + 7) (x + 5) = x^2 + 5x + 7x + 35 = x^2 + 12x + 35$$

2- 54
$$\frac{54}{6}=\frac{27}{6}=9$$
$$\frac{48}{6}=\frac{24}{3}=8$$
$$\frac{36}{6}=\frac{18}{3}=6$$
$$\frac{59}{6}=\frac{59}{6}$$
$$59$$ is prime number

3- 9
$$x^2 – 81 = 0 ⇒ x^2 = 81 ⇒ x = 9$$

4- 20
If $$a = 8$$ then $$b = \frac {8^2}{4}+ 4 ⇒ b = \frac {64}{4} + 4 ⇒b = 16 + 4 = 20$$

5- 240
The ratio of boy to girls is $$2:3$$. Therefore, there are 2 boys out of 5 students. To find the answer, first divide the total number of students by 5, then multiply the result by 2.
$$600 ÷ 5 = 120 ⇒ 120 × 2 = 240$$

6- 18
$$a=6$$⇒ area of triangle is $$=\frac{1}{2} (6×6)=\frac{36}{2}=18$$ cm

7- $$x\leq-3$$
Simplify. $$10 – \frac{2}{3} x ≥ 12 ⇒ –\frac{2}{3} x ≥ 2 ⇒ – x ≥ 3 ⇒ x ≤ – 3$$

8- $$x-4$$
Factor each trinomial $$x^2 – 2x – 8$$ and $$x^2 – 6x + 8$$
$$x^2 – 2x – 8 ⇒ (x – 4)(x + 2)$$
$$x^2 – 6x + 8 ⇒ (x – 2)(x – 4)$$ The common Factor is: $$(x – 4)$$

9- 5
$$\frac{1+b}{6b^2}=\frac{1}{b^2} ⇒(b≠0)$$
$$b^2+b^3=6b^2⇒b^3-5b^2=0⇒b^2 (b-5)=0⇒b-5=0⇒b=5$$

10- $$82^\circ$$
$$53^\circ + 45^\circ = 98^\circ$$
$$180^\circ – 98^\circ = 82^\circ$$
The value of the third angle is 82^\circ.
