If (8z − 9)(8z + 9) = az2 − b, what is the value of a? (5 points)
1 answer:
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! :)

So I would first find out when they are equal then do one more than that. 21x=18x+45, 3x=45, x=15 so the answer would be 16 jerseys
Answer:
A.m = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
This equation is written in point slope form
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
y +2 = -3(x – 7)
y - -2 = -3(x – 7)
The slope is -3 and the point is (7, -2)
