For this question, you will now need to solve for both a and b, you can break down the expression that they want you to find:

(a^2-b^2)/(a-b)
= (a+b)(a-b)/(a-b) (Difference of squares)
= a+b (The (a-b) is common at the top and bottom so they will cancel

Now a+b =
Therefore the answer is (C)

A pair of pants costs twice as much as a shirt. The total cost of 1 pair of pants and 1 shirt is $18 . If s represents the cost

dolphi86 [110]

Let the price of 1 shirt be represented by = s

A pair of pants costs twice as much as a shirt, then the cost of pants is = 2s

The total cost of 1 pair of pants and 1 shirt is $18 , means : $s+2s=18$

Solving this we get,

$3s=18$

$s=6$

So, the price of 1 shirt is $6 and price of 1 pair of pants is = 2s = 2*6 = $12.

dalvyx [7]

Marbles are solid in nature, they can be used to form objects of any kind, this makes them suitable for Sam's claim, the marbles can be used to model a typical structure of a solid, even though it is can only be a prototype.

<h3>There are two main categories of solids:</h3>

Crystalline
Amorphous.

Crystalline solids are well ordered at the atomic level, and amorphous solids are disordered.

<h3>Types of crystalline solids</h3>

There are four types of crystalline solids: ionic solids, molecular solids, network covalent solids, and metallic solids

The constituents of a solid can be arranged in two general ways: they can form a regular repeating three-dimensional structure called a crystal lattice
