Which of the expressions below can be factored using the difference of squares method?

zlopas [31]

Answer:

The second choice is correct. It can be factored as:

$9x^2-16y^2=(3x-4y)(3x+4y)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The Difference of Squares Method for Factoring

The expression:

$a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)$

Is a widely used method to factor binomials that are expressed as the subtraction of two perfect squares.

The condition for a binomial to be factored by using this method is that both terms must have an exact square root and they must be subtracted.

The last two choices are not valid because they are not a subtraction but an addition.

The first choice is not valid because none of the terms is a perfect square.

The second choice is correct. It can be factored as:

$9x^2-16y^2=(3x-4y)(3x+4y)$

What is the slope of the line below?

g100num [7]

Answer:

D. Negative.

Step-by-step explanation:

In truth, when given the graph you don't really need to use the points, but if needed it you would use the formula:

y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

Plug in your information and solve.

-1 - 5 = m (2 - (-1))

-6 = m (3)

-6 = 3m

m = -6 / 3

m = -2

(m = slope)

Also, when shown on the graph =

If the slope is going:

up from left to right: it's positive

down from left to right: it's negative

straight up and down (vertical): it's undefined

straight left to right (horizontal): it's zero.
