Answer:
(x - 1) (x + 1) (x - 4) (x + 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
actor the following:
x^4 - 17 x^2 + 16
x^4 - 17 x^2 + 16 = (x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16:
(x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16
The factors of 16 that sum to -17 are -1 and -16. So, (x^2)^2 - 17 x^2 + 16 = (x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 16):
(x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 16)
x^2 - 16 = x^2 - 4^2:
(x^2 - 1) (x^2 - 4^2)
Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 4^2 = (x - 4) (x + 4):
(x - 4) (x + 4) (x^2 - 1)
x^2 - 1 = x^2 - 1^2:
(x^2 - 1^2) (x - 4) (x + 4)
Factor the difference of two squares. x^2 - 1^2 = (x - 1) (x + 1):
Answer: (x - 1) (x + 1) (x - 4) (x + 4)
so hmmm let's get the area of the whole hexagon, and then get the area of the circle inside it, then <u>subtract the area of the circle from that of the hexagon's</u>, what's leftover is what we didn't subtract, namely the shaded part.

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
<u><em>16</em></u>
<u><em>Step-by-step explanation:</em></u>
<u><em>10 divided by 5 equals 2 (10/5=2)</em></u>
<u><em>2 times 8 equals 16 (2 x 8 = 16)</em></u>

Answer:
They sold 67.50 in total
Step-by-step explanation:
If each of them sold 15 boxes for 2.25 then both of them got 33.75 each then you add it and that gives you 67.50
First case:
average of test score =70
number of students =p
total score of 'p' students = ( average of test score)*( number of students)
total score of 'p' students =70p
Second case:
average of test score =92
number of students =n
total score of 'n' students = ( average of test score)*( number of students)
total score of 'n' students =92n
total number of students = p+n
total average score =86
so, total score =86(p+n)
total score = total score of 'p' students +total score of 'n' students

now, we can simplify it



now, we can find p/n
