Answer:
(b) (x -10)(x +10)
Step-by-step explanation:
The factorization of the difference of squares is a special form:
a² -b² = (a -b)(a +b)
<h3>Application</h3>
Your expression is recognizable as the difference of squares:
x² -100 = x -10²
Using the above form, the factorization is ...
= (x -10)(x +10) . . . . . . . . matches the second choice
Answer:
27 13/60
Step-by-step explanation:
What you have tried to do is not an impossible way to do it. What you could do is set your fractions and whole numbers like this.
( 7 + 1/10) * (3 + 5/6) I don't know if you know what FOIL is, but that is the way to proceed.
- First: (meaning the first in each factor ). 3 * 7 = 21
- Outside: (meaning the two terms near outside the brackets) 7 * 5/6 = 5 5/6
- Inside: The two terms closest to the * sign 1 / 10 *3 = 3/10
- Last: The two end terms (1/10 * 5/6 = 5/60 5/60
Now you can add. 21 + 5 is the whole number amount = 26
Add the fractions
- 5/6 + 3/10 + 5/60 The lowest common multiple is 60
- 50/60 + 18/60 +5/60 = 73 / 60 = 1 and 13/60
Add that to 26 and you get 27 13/60
I think it would be y=5/6 - 5
