What is a difference between a waxing crescent and a waning gibbous? (1 point) waxing crescent: first quarter waning gibbous: third quarter waxing crescent: second quarter waning gibbous: third quarter waxing crescent: third quarter waning gibbous: first quarter waxing crescent: fourth quarter waning gibbous: first quarter

Here's a picture to help ya.

But what does “waxing and waning gibbous” mean? Rob says crescent is when you can see less than half of the moon illuminated. “Gibbous, you attach that to either waxing or waning when you see more than half of the moon illuminated,” he said. Waxing means it's getting bigger while waning means it's getting smaller.

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

discussion:

in general, the factorization of a^3 + b^3 is

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

in our case note that 343 = 7^3 and 216 = 6^3 so the equation becomes:

343x^3 + 216y^3 = (7x)^3 + (6y)^3

if you think of a (above) as 7x and b as 6y the factorization becomes

343x^3 + 216y^3 =

((7x + 6y) (   (7x)^2 - 7x*6y + (6y)^2)   =

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