Hint: "4x 2 - 25 = 0" is nearly meaningless. You want 4x^2 - 25 = 0.

Note that both 4x^2 and 25 are perfect squares, so this is the difference of two squares, and is equal to (2x-5)(2x+5)= 0.

There is a small subset of polynomials whos factorizations mathematicians like to label "special." From an outside perspective, nothing seems to be different about these polynomials. You can use the same algorithm you use to find any other factorization, but you could also form a general statement about polynomials like this.

This polynomial is in the form a^2-b^2. We can factor this normally.

-b and b add to 0 and multiply to -b^2, so:

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

So, we've factored this quadratic like we would any other, but we also notice something interesting about all quadratics in this form. In this example,

a^2=4x^2\\ b^2=25

That means

a=2x\\ b=5

So we can say that the factorization of the quadratic is:

(2x-5)(2x+5)

If A/B and C/D<br> are rational expressions, then<br> AxC/BxD = AxD/BxC<br> A. True<br> B. False
sdas [7]

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

If A/B and C/D are rational expression then

A/B*C/D

Or

A/B*C/D=A/C*B/D

It means that if A/B and C/D are rational expression then their product with each other will also be a rational expression.

The polygon is a regular nonagon (9-sides). What is the sum of the interior angles? What is the measurement for each angle?
lana66690 [7]
Divide the nonagon radially into 9 congruent, equilateral isosceles triangle. Each triangle has vertex angle of 360°/9 = 40°.
Interior angle of polygon = 180°-40° = 140°.
Sum of interior angles = 9(140°) = 1260°

Ty flipped a coin and counted how many times it landed on heads and how many times it landed on
lesya [120]
<h3>Answer:  13/28</h3>

========================================================

Reason:

The table shows he got 26 heads out of 26+30 = 56 coin flips.

26/56 = (2*13)/(2*28) = 13/28 is the empirical or experimetnal probablity of getting heads.

Side note: 13/28 = 0.4643 = 46.43% approximately which is fairly close to 50%
