Homework Help - October 2006

[Gwyneth factors x^3 - 8x^2 + 15x as (x^2 - 5x)(x - 3). Is she wrong? Why or why not? What advice would you offer?] First let's answer the question posed by the textbook. After we finish with #65, let's work on #67. [Without multiplying (x - 17)(x - 18), explain why it cannot possibly be a factorization of x^2 + 35x + 306.] Can x^2 +35x + 306 even be factored?

One of the biggest problems that our planet has to face is, surprisingly, waste. Plastic bottles, cutlery, bags and much more are very useful. But once they are used, they turn out to be a burden for the environment. How can we deal with this problem? Well, prevention is always better than cure. First of all, we should buy products made form recycled material. If we have any plastic, paper and glass rubbish, we should not simply throw them into the bin. The best thing to do is to take them to the nearest recycling centre. It is very important as far as used batteries are concerned. Batteries contain mercury, which can leak into the groundwater beneath the landfills. The groundwater then runs into the streams and poisons the fish. Other possibility is buying rechargeable batteries. In addition, we should reduce the consumption of bottled water. Plastic water bottles aren't biodegradable, so they will eventually overflow from the landfills.

Let me take you to a virtual trip to the future. Please do fasten your seat belt, are you ready? OK, let’s explore the Earth in 2050. We are now hovering 500 metres over the land. Can you see millions of millions tiny dots moving around? They are people walking. Are you surprised of the absence of cars and other machinery? They are useless these days since the energy resources had been used up ages and ages ago. And the animals? Where have they gone? Why are the oceans no longer blue? And oil slicks are everywhere. Turn left, can you see the huge pile of rubbish over there? It does not look nice but what else can we do with the rubbish that cannot be recycled? Do not open the window, the air outside is really polluted. Does the world of 2050 scare you? But we all are making contributions so that the world of 2006 looks like this or even worse in 2050. What can anyone of us do in order to save our children and grandchildren from being part of this trip as every day life?
