9 - (a - 7)
Note that - = -1
First, distribute - 1 to all terms within the parenthesis
-1(a - 7) = -a + 7
9 - a + 7
Combine like terms
9 + 7 = 16
-a + 16, or A. 16 - a is your answer

Hi There! :)
<span>Which numbers should be multiplied to obtain 175^2 − 124^2?
</span><span>51 and 299</span>
Answer:
AC = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
y is the dimension of the horizontal segment (see the attached image).
The hypotenuses are the same dimension, so:
(x+4)^2=(x/2)^2+y^2
(3x-8)^2=(x/2)^2+y^2
So,
(x+4)^2 = (3x-8)^2
x+4 = 3x-8
x-3x = -8-4
-2x = -12
x = 6
And x is the dimension of the segment AC.
