The question is looking for the coefficient to the first term after multiplying the two sets of parentheses together.

=(8z − 9)(8z + 9)
using the FOIL method, multiply the first, outside, inside, then last terms

=(8z*8z) + (8z*9) + (-9*8z) + (-9*9)
=64z^2 + 72z - 72z - 81
the middle two terms cancel each other (72-72= 0)
=64z^2 - 81

ANSWER: The value of a is 64

Hope this helps! :)

You place $4,000.00 in a bank account with an interest rate of 5.25% APR and another $2,000.00 in an account with an interest ra
Mila [183]
First account
interest = 6/12 × 5.25% × 4,000
interest = 1/2 × 5.25/100 × 4,000
interest = 1/2 × 210
interest = 105 dollars

Second account
interest = 6/12 × 6% × 2,000
interest = 1/2 × 6/100 × 2,000
interest = 1/2 × 120
interest = 60 dollars

After 6 months, the first account will have earned more interest than the second account

Answer:

50 berries left over

Step-by-step explanation:

55 berries     1700 berries

--------------- = -------------------

1 jar                   x jars

Using cross products

55x = 1700*1

Divide each side by 55

55x/55 = 1700/55

x = 1700/55

Changing to a mixed number

55 goes into 1700 30 times

30 *55 =16501700-1650 = 50

x = 30 50/55 = 30 10/11

There are 50 berries left over
