There is a 50% (2/4) chance that this could occur, as given in the question.
88*.5 = 44.
Answer:
1 .4x2-9= 2x+3,2x-3
2 .16x2-1=4x-1,4x+1
3 .16x2-4=4(2x+1)(2x-1)
4 .4x2-1=(2x+1)(2x-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
16x² − 1 = (4x − 1)(4x + 1) ; 16x² − 4 = 4(2x + 1)(2x − 1); 4x² − 1 = (2x + 1)(2x − 1) ;
4x² − 9 = (2x + 3)(2x − 3)
16x² − 1 is the difference of squares. This is because 16x² is a perfect square, as is 1. To find the factors of the difference of squares, take the square root of each square; one factor will be the sum of these and the other will be the difference.
The square root of 16x² is 4x and the square root of 1 is 1; this gives us (4x-1)(4x+1).
16x² − 4 is also the difference of squares. The difference of 16x² is 4x and the square root of 4 is 2; this gives us (4x-2)(4x+2). However, we can also factor a 2 out of each of these binomials; this gives us
2(2x-1)(2)(2x+1) = 2(2)(2x-1)(2x+1) = 4(2x-1)(2x+1)
4x² − 1 is also the difference of squares. The square root of 4x² is 2x and the square root of 1 is 1; this gives us (2x-1)(2x+1).
4x² − 9 is also the difference of squares. The square root of 4x² is 2x and the square root of 9 is 3; this gives us (2x-3)(2x+3).
Answer:
The length would be 10ft and the width would be 8ft
Step-by-step explanation:
For the purpose of this, we'll set the width as x. We can then define the length as x + 2 since we know it is 2 ft longer than the width. Now we can use those along with the perimeter formula to solve for the width.
P = 2l + 2w
36 = 2(x + 2) + 2(x)
36 = 2x + 4 + 2x
36 = 4x + 4
32 = 4x
8 = x
Now since we know that the width is 8ft, we can add 2ft to it to get the length, which would be 10ft.
