The product in simplest form is (x - 4)

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>Given expression is:</u></em>

\frac{8}{2x+8} \times \frac{x^2-16}{4}

We have to find the product in simplest form

In the given expression,

2x + 8 = 2(x+ 4)

We know that,

a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)

Therefore,

x^2-16 = x^2-4^2 =(x+4)(x-4)

Substitute these in given expression

\frac{8}{2(x+4)} \times \frac{(x+4)(x-4)}{4}

Cancel the common factors,

\frac{8}{2(x+4)} \times \frac{(x+4)(x-4)}{4} = x - 4

Thus the product in simplest form is (x - 4)

OLga [1]

Answer: N = 20C2 = 190

Therefore, Timika has 190 ways of choosing the pairs of children to lead the way

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Total number of children = 20

Number of children to lead the way = 2

Since all the children have equal possibilities of being selected to lead the way, and for the order is not important.

Then the number of ways to select two leaders from 20 children will be given by;

N = 20C2 = 20!/2!(20-2)! = 20!/2!18!

N = 20 × 19/2

N = 190

Therefore, Timika has 190 ways of choosing the pairs of children to lead the way

A weight lifter can bench press 189 kg. How many milligrams (mg) is this?
Inessa [10]

A weight lifter can bench press 189 kg. How many milligrams (mg) is this?

Answer: We know that:

1kg=1,000,000 mg

We are given, that a weight lifter can bench press 189 kg

Therefore, a weight lifter can bench press:

189 \times 1,000,000 mg

189,000,000mg

18.9 \times 10^{7} mg

Therefore, 18.9 \times 10^{7} mg is equal to the 189 kg
