Answer: 16 small squares

why?
since this is a square mosaic, all four sides have equal numbers of glass squares
if you think about one glass square as one unit, the scenario can be considered through the equation 256=x^{2} -- where x is the number of glass squares per side ( remember, area of square = x^{2} )
so, to solve the equation, you find the square root of 256, which is 16!

~hope it makes sense~

To do this, you got to square 256.

The square root of 256 is 16.

Therefore, there are 16 small squares on each edge of the mosaic.

Kinda proof:

o  o  o  o  O

25 squares. Square root is 5. 5 along each edge. My work shares same concept.

Extremely unnecessary proof:

o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O

There are 256 squares, and you can count 16 on each edge. this shows 16 times 16, or 16 squared, which is 256.

1) Final expression: +7y^2-6y-17

2) Final expression: 21x^3-46x^2+59x-30

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

The first expression is

(-2y^2-11y-7)-(-9y^2-5y+10)

First, we remove the 2nd bracket by changing the sign of all the terms inside:

-2y^2-11y-7-+9y^2+5y-10

Now we group the terms with same degree together:

(-2y^2+9y^2)+(-11y+5y)+(-7-10)

Now we solve the expression in each brackets:

(-2y^2+9y^2)+(-11y+5y)+(-7-10)=\\+7y^2-6y-17

So, this is the final expression.

2)

The second expression is

(7x-6)(3x^2-4x+5)

We apply the distributive property, so we rewrite the expression as follows:

(7x-6)(3x^2-4x+5)=7x(3x^2-4x+5)-6(3x^2-4x+5)

Solving both brackets,

7x(3x^2-4x+5)-6(3x^2-4x+5)=\\21x^3-28x^2+35x-18x^2+24x-30

Now we group terms of same degree together:

21x^3-28x^2+35x-18x^2+24x-30=\\21x^3+(-28x^2-18x^2)+(35x+24x)-30

And solving each bracket,

21x^3+(-28x^2-18x^2)+(35x+24x)-30=\\21x^3-46x^2+59x-30

So, this is the final expression.

Determine whether this system of equations has one solution, no solution, or infinitely many solutions.
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

The only solution I see is for x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

y=8x+2

y=-8x+2

y=y so substitute:

8X+2=-8X+2

Subtract 2 from each side

8X=-8X

divide each side by 8

x=-x

The only solution I see is for x=0
