2. The angles formed by the two rays along the 1st and 3rd baselines are complimentary. The
shortstop is represented by the black circle. The
angle measure between the player at shortstop
and first base is 68º. The angle measure between
3rd base and the player at shortstop is
represented by 2x.

step-by-step explanation:

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:

(7 x + 6 y) (49 x^2 - 42 x y + 36 y^2)

discussion:

the trick is to recognize that 343 = 7^3 and 216 = 6^3 and, in general,

a^3 + b^3 =   (a + b) (a^2 - a b + b^2).

in our case

343x^3+216y^3   =   (7x)^3 + (6y)^3

so take a = 7x and b = 6y in the above equation to get the answer.

you,

mrb
