Complete Question: Which of the following is an example of the difference of two​ squares?

A x² − 9

B x³ − 9

C (x + 9)²

D (x − 9)²

Answer:

A. x^2 - 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

An easy way to spot an expression that is a difference of two squares is to note that the first term and the second term in the expression are both perfect squares. Both terms usually have the negative sign between them.

Thus, difference of two squares takes the following form: a^2 - b^2 = (a + b)(a - b).

a² and b² are perfect squares. Expanding (a + b)(a - b) will give us a^2 - b^2.

Therefore, an example of the difference of two squares, from the given options, is x^2 - 9.

x^2 - 9 can be factorised as x^2 - 3^2 = (x + 3)(x - 3).

The sum of a students three scores is 217. If the first is 30 points more than the the second, and the sum of the first two is 1
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

First score is 90

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A represent the first score

Let B represent the second score

Let C represent the third score

A+B+C=217 equation 1

If the first score A is 30 points more than the second,B

A=B-30  equation 2

Lastly,sum of A&B is 16 more than 2C

A+B=2C+16 equation 3

From equation 1

A+B=217-C equation 4

substitute for A+B in equation 3

217-C=2C+16

217-16=2C+C

201=3C

C=67

substituting C in equation 4

A+B=217-67

A+B=150

if the first score more than the first,then the first 90 while second 60 since A+B=150
