Answer:

<em>The answer is 13</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Two positive and consecutive old numbers are x and x - 2.

=> x(x - 2) = 143

=> x^2 - 2x - 143 = 0

=> x^2 + 11x - 13x - 143 = 0

=> x(x + 11) - 13(x + 11) = 0

=> (x + 11)(x - 13) = 0

=>  x = -11 (invalid)

or x = 13 (valid), the remaining number is 13 - 2 = 11

=> The two numbers are 11 and 13, and the greater number is 13.

Hope this helps!

(3x^2a - 4y^a z^3a) ^2 ...?
shusha [124]
The answer is 9x⁴ᵃ - 24x²ᵃyᵃz³ᵃ + 16 y²ᵃz⁶ᵃ


(a - b)² = a² - 2ab + b²
(3x²ᵃ - 4yᵃz³ᵃ)² = (3x²ᵃ)² - 2 * 3x²ᵃ * 4yᵃz³ᵃ + (4yᵃz³ᵃ)² =
                         = 3²x²ᵃ*² - 2 * 3 * 4 x²ᵃ * yᵃz³ᵃ + 4²yᵃ*²z³ᵃ*² =
                         = 9x⁴ᵃ - 24x²ᵃyᵃz³ᵃ + 16 y²ᵃz⁶ᵃ
