To find the percent decrease of any two numbers, subtract the numbers and divide it by the original.

So in this case:

20-17÷20

= 3÷20

What is the factorization of the polynomial below?
katrin [286]

Answer:

A. (2x + 5)(2x - 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor out the polynomial given.

(4x² - 25) = (2x - 5)(2x + 5)

Check: Use the FOIL method.

(2x)(2x) = 4x²

(2x)(5) = 10x

(2x)(-5) = -10x

(-5)(5) = -25

Simplify. Combine like terms: 4x² + 10x - 10x - 25 = 4x² - 25

A. (2x + 5)(2x - 5) is your answer

OleMash [197]

y = 5x
