The distance between town X and Town Y is equal to the difference between the distance between Town X and Town Z and the distance from Town Y and Town Z. Mathematically
                      d (X-Y) = d (X-Z) - d(Y-Z)
Substituting,
                      d(X-Y) = 57 miles - 28 miles = 29 miles
Thus, the distance from Town X to Town Y is 29 miles.

timama [110]

Answer:

if she would sell it for what it is worth now she would make $36.50

Is it true that if one of the factors is 0, the product is 1?​
kaheart [24]

Answer:

The Principle of Zero Products states that if the product of two numbers is 0, then at least one of the factors is 0. (This is not really new.) If ab = 0, then either a = 0 or b = 0, or both a and b are 0.

hope it helped

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4) x² - 14x + 48

We would find two numbers such that their sum or difference is -14x and their product is 48x².

The two numbers are - 6x and - 8x. Therefore,

x² - 6x - 8x + 48

x(x - 6) - 8(x - 6)

(x - 8)(x - 6)

5) 2x² + 21x - 11

We would find two numbers such that their sum or difference is 21x and their product is - 22x².

The two numbers are 22x and - x. Therefore,

2x² + 22x - x - 11

2x(x + 11) - 1(x + 11)

(2x - 1)(x + 11)

6) 5a² - 125

5 is a common factor. So we would factorize 5. It becomes

5(a² - 25)

Simplifying further, it becomes

5(a + 5)(a - 5)
