Determine whether each statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning. Although \(20 x^{3}\) appears in both \(20 x^{3}+8 x^{2}\) and \(20 x^{3}+10 x\) I'll need to factor \(20 x^{3}\) in different ways to obtain each polynomial's factorization
$$\text { factor completely.}$$ $$-x^{2}-4 x+5$$
Evaluate each algebraic expression for the given value or values of the variable(s). $$x^{2}-6 x+3, \text { for } x=7$$
Simplify and express the answer in descending powers of \(x\) : $$2 x\left(x^{2}+4 x+5\right)+3\left(x^{2}+4 x+5\right)$$
a. A mathematics professor recently purchased a birthday cake for her son with the inscription $$\text { Happy }\left(2^{\frac{5}{2}} \cdot 2^{\frac{3}{4}} \div 2^{\frac{1}{4}}\right) \text { th Birthday. }$$ How old is the son? b. The birthday boy, excited by the inscription on the cake, tried to wolf down the whole thing. Professor Mom, concerned about the possible metamorphosis of her son into a blimp, exclaimed, "Hold on! It is your birthday, so why not take \(\frac{8^{-\frac{4}{3}}+2^{-2}}{16^{-\frac{3}{4}}+2^{-1}}\) of the cake? I'll eat half of what's left over." How much of the cake did the professor eat?
