Factor the polynomial expression x6 – x3 – 20

Without multiplying, tell which product is larger and why. 5 × 1/3 or 5 × 2/3 a)5 × 1/3 because 1/3 is less than 2/3 b) 5 × 1/3 because 1/3 is greater than 2/3 c) 5 × 2/3 because 1/3 is less than 23 d) 5 × 23 because 1/3 is greater than 2/3

Does 9q + 7 also equal 7 + 9q ? (simplifying algebraic expressions)
