Which value of a would make the following expression completely factored

Mathematics

Answer:

A)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the expression (x^2 - a^2) can be written as (x-a)(x+a). So an expression of this type: (x^2 - a^2) wouldn't be completely factored because it could be factorized even more.

So we know that 36 = 6^2, 49= 7^2 and 81 = 9^2. So if we choose any of these options (Option B, C and D) it wouldn't be completely factored.

The correct is the option A, given that if a=12, it wouldn't be a perfect square, so it would be completely factored.

Doctor florens needs 25 g of salt for each student to do an experiment she has 1.2 kg of salt on hand she has a total of a 128 s
erik [133]
The first thing I would do is convert that 1.2 kilograms of salt to grams; that would ensure that all the units are the same so we can perform calculations on them.

1.2kg = 1200g


Next, I would find out how many students can do the experiment with 1200g of salt, by finding it how many 25g are in 1200g (by dividing them).

\frac{1200g}{25g}=48students


That means we still have 80 students left to provide salt for (128 - 48).
Therefore, he needs an additional 80 amounts of 25g of salt.

Therefore he needs:
80students*25g = 2000g = 2kg
