Given, (9x - 4)(9x + 4) = ax² - b

From algebraic identities:

We know, (a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²

Now, 81x² + 36x - 36x - 16 = ax² - b

81x² - 16 = axis² - b

So ax² = 81x²

a = 81

-b = -16

b = 16

Solution

Therefore, the value of a is 81.

If x² - y² = 55, and x - y = 11, then y =<br> a. 8<br> b. 5<br> c. 3<br> d. -8<br> e. -3
irina1246 [14]
X^2-y^2=55
this means that 
(x+y)(x-y)=55
we know that x-y=11 so we can write
(x+y)(11)=55
x+y=55/11 we divide by 11 and we obtain 
x+y=5

x-y=11 this means
x=y+11 we replace in the other equation (x+y=5)

y+11+y=5
2y=5-11
2y=-6
y=-3
and you find out that also 
x=8

Answer:

The fully factored form is 3(x^2 - 7))

Step-by-step explanation:

The only thing you can do with this equation is take out a factor of 3. You cannot simplify the resulting parenthesis without using irrational numbers.

Two angles are complementary. The larger angle is
Sliva [168]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  34, 56 . . . . degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the smaller angle. Then x+22 is the larger. Complementary angles have a sum of 90°:

  (x)° +(x +22)° = 90°

  2x = 68

  x = 34

  x +22 = 56

The two angle measures are 34° and 56°.
