Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First you will divide 525 by 100. Then you multiply your answer by 4. That will equal 21
3x + 4y = 31
2x - 4y = -6
*The +4 and -4 in the center of the equation cancel out because 4-4 = 0*
3x = 31
2x = -6
------------
*add like terms*
3x + 2x = 5x
31 - 6 = 25
So now you should have this written on your paper ... > 5x = 25
*Divide by 5 on each side*
5x = 25
_ _
5 5
x = 5
Use the difference of squares factorization - that for any numbers a and b, (a-b)(a+b)=a^2-b^2.
We have:
(x^2+1)(x^2-1)=x^4-1
In addition:
(x-1)(x+1)=x^2-1, so we have:
(x^2+1)(x+1)(x-1)
As our complete factorization.
