Answer:

(-5, -7) and the x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

when looking for a point that is 7 points away, we are looking for a difference of 7 in either the x-value or the y-value.

[remember: a point is written as (x, y) ]

We know that the x-value is -7, meaning that it is 7 units under the x-axis (meaning that it is 7 units away)

We know that our point, (2 , -7) has the same y-value as (-5, -7), so we are looking for a change in x. The difference (which is the change) between:

-5 and 2 is 7

(2 - (-5) = 2 + 5 = 7)

so, both the x-axis and the point (-5, -7) are 7 units away from (2, -7)

(the other point (-7, 7) is not near (2 , -7) at all--they have a larger difference on both the y-values, the x-values, and the length of if you made a diagonal line)

How would the expression x^2-4 be rewritten using Difference of Squares?

Anna [14]

a2 – b2 = (a + b)(a – b) or (a – b)(a + b).
This is the 'Difference of Squares' formula we can use to factor the expression.

In order to use the 'Difference of Squares' formula to factor a binomial, the binomial must contain two perfect squares that are separated by a subtraction symbol.

x^2 - 4 fits this, because x^2 and 4 are both perfect squares, and they are separated by a subtraction symbol.
All you do here to factor, is take the square root of each term.

√x^2 = x
√4 = 2

Now that we have our square roots, x and 2, we substitute these numbers into the form (a + b)(a - b).

(a + b)(a - b)
(x + 2)(x - 2)

Our answer is final (x + 2)(x - 2), which can also be written as (x - 2)(x + 2), it doesn't make a difference which order you put it in.

Anyway, Hope this helps!!
