The answer I believe is 5.8
Turn the fraction into a decimal,so 1/2 would be .5 and then multiply that into -6 which would be -3
We are given two binomials: x+4 , x^2-9.
x+4 can't be factored. Therefore, it is a prime.
Let us work on x^2-9.
9 could be written as 3^2.
Therefore, x^2-9 = x^2 - 3^2.
Now, we can apply difference of the squares formula to factor it.
We know a^2 -b^2 = (a-b) (a+b).
Therefore, x^2 - 3^2 can be factored as (x-3) (x+3).
So, x^2-9 is not a prime binomial because it can be factored as (x-3) (x+3).
Answer:
to estimate the sum you round to the closest number like 38 is closest to 40 so you just say you total is $40.00
difference is when say you have 30 dollars and you spend 10 the difference is 10 dollars
