Answer:

(x + y)(x - y) (x + 2)(x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

-x^2 y^2 + x^4 + 4y^2 - 4x^2

Lets rearrange the terms

x^4 -x^2 y^2 - 4x^2 + 4y^2

Then we group first two terms and last two terms

(x^4 -x^2 y^2)+(- 4x^2 + 4y^2)

Factor out each group

x^2(x^2 - y^2) - 4 (x^2 - y^2)

(x^2 - y^2)(x^2 - 4)

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

(x + y)(x - y) (x + 2)(x - 2)

<span>-x^2 y^2 + x^4 + 4y^2 - 4x^2
= </span>x^4 -x^2 y^2 - 4x^2 + 4y^2<span>
= x^2 (x^2 - y^2) - 4 (x^2 - y^2)
= (x^2 - y^2)(x^2 - 4)
= (x + y)(x - y) (x + 2)(x - 2) (....using a^2 - b^2 = (a+b)(a-b) )

hope it helps</span>

PLEASE HELP me with the magic square
defon

Fill in each slot in the square with variables <em>a</em>, <em>b</em>, <em>c</em>, <em>d</em>, and <em>e</em>, in order from left-to-right, top-to-bottom. In a magic square, the sums across rows, columns, and diagonals all add up to the same number called the <em>magic sum</em>.

The magic sum is -3.9, since "diagonal 2" (bottom left to top right) has all the information we need:

3 + (-1.3) + (-5.6) = -3.9

Use this to find the remaining elements

  • row 1:

<em>a</em> + <em>b</em> + (-5.6) = -3.9

  • row 2:

<em>c</em> + (-1.3) + <em>d</em> = -3.9

  • row 3:

3 + <em>e</em> + 0.02 = -3.9

  • column 1:

<em>a</em> + <em>c</em> + 3 = -3.9

  • column 2:

<em>b</em> + (-1.3) + <em>e</em> = -3.9

  • column 3:

(-5.6) + <em>d</em> + 0.02 = -3.9

  • diagonal 1 (top left to bottom right):

<em>a</em> + (-1.3) + 0.02 = -3.9

You will find

<em>a</em> = -2.62

<em>b</em> = 4.32

<em>c</em> = -4.28

<em>d</em> = 1.68

<em>e</em> = -6.92

A square has an area of 75 square meters. Which of the following is closest to the length of a side of the square?
Ilya [14]

The formula for the area of a square of side s is A = s^2.

Then s^2 = A, and s = +√A.

Here, the approx. side length is s = +√(75 m^2), or 8.7 m

Find the Exponential Regression using the table. Write the initial amount, common ratio, and equation for the table.
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

Initial amount;

2110.6

Common ratio;

0.0201

Equation;

y=2110.6e^{0.0201x}

Step-by-step explanation:

In this scenario, the  month represents the independent variable x while the membership amount represents the dependent variable y.

The analysis is performed in Ms. Excel. The first step is to obtain a scatter plot of the data then finally inserting an exponential trend line to obtain the required equation.

The Ms. Excel output is shown in the attachment below. To obtain the initial amount we substitute x = 0 in the equation. On the other hand, the common ratio is the exponent in the equation.
