==============================================
Explanations:
- This is discrete because we can't have half a basketball, or any non-whole decimal value to represent the number of basketballs. We can only consider positive whole numbers {1,2,3,4,...}. A discrete set like this has gaps between items. In other words, the midpoint of 2 and 3 (the value 2.5) isn't a valid number of basketballs.
- This is continuous because time values are continuous. We can take any two different markers in time, and find a midpoint between them. For example, the midpoint of 5 minutes and 17 minutes is 11 minutes since (5+17)/2 = 22/2 = 11. Continuous sets like this do not have any gaps between items. We can consider this to be densely packed.
- This is the same as problem 1, so we have another discrete function. You either score a bullseye or you don't. We can't score half a bullseye. The only possible values are {1,2,3,4,...}
- This is similar to problem 2. This function is continuous. Pick any two different positive real numbers to represent the amount of gallons of water. You will always be able to find a midpoint between those values (eg: we can have half a gallon) and such a measurement makes sense.
So in short, always try to ask the question: Can I pick two different values, compute the midpoint, and have that midpoint make sense? If so, then you're dealing with a continuous variable. Otherwise, the data is discrete.
Answer:
66 squares are in the circle.
By concepts of polynomials and systems of linear equations, the constants c and d of the expression p(x) = x⁴ - 5 · x³ - 7 · x² + c · x + d are 29 and 30.
<h3>How to determine the missing coefficients of a quartic equation</h3>
A value x is a root of a polynomial if and only if p(x) = 0. We must replace the given equation with the given roots and solve the resulting system of <em>linear</em> equations:
(- 1)⁴ - 5 · (- 1)³ - 7 · (- 1)² + (- 1) · c + d = 0
- c + d = 1 (1)
3⁴ - 5 · 3³ - 7 · 3² + 3 · c + d = 0
3 · c + d = 117 (2)
The solution of this system is c = 29 and d = 30.
By concepts of polynomials and systems of linear equations, the constants c and d of the expression p(x) = x⁴ - 5 · x³ - 7 · x² + c · x + d are 29 and 30.

64x² - 36 factors to be (8x + 6)(8x - 6)
Option C is your answer.
HOWEVER, I cannot tell what the operation is supposed to be performed because of the way it is showing up above (see attached pic). So I can also just simplify it.
64x² - 36 becomes 4(16x² - 9) or 4(4x - 3)(4x + 3)
64x² + 36 becomes 4(16x² + 9)
