a^2 - b^2 = (a + b)(a - b)
In this case
49x^4y^2 - 4z^2
= (7x^2y)^2 - (2z)^2
= (7x^2y + 2z)(7x^2y - 2z)
Factors are (7x^2y + 2z) and (7x^2y - 2z)
Answer:
D) 7x^2y + 2z
Answer:
$79.63
Step-by-step explanation:
You can figure this by estimating. 16% is a little less than 20%, which is 1/5. $497.69 is almost $500. So, 1/5 of that is almost $100, and a little less than that is about $80. The closest answer choice is $79.63.

If you want to figure it exactly, you can do the multiplication ...
16% of $497.69 = 0.16 × $497.69 = $79.6304 ≈ $79.63
Substitue what y equals for y and solve.

Hope this helps.
33 = 88x
x = 33/88
x = .375 = 37.5 percent
