If you work backwords, I'd say it's easier. 3y swuared is 9y2, and 11 squared is 121. Then just keep the sign the same
Answer:
x(3y - 1) and (2a - 3)(2a + 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
(1)
3xy - x ← factor out x from each term
= x(3y - 1)
(2)
4a² - 9 ← is a difference of squares and factors in general as
a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b) , then
4a² - 9
= (2a)² - 3²
= (2a - 3)(2a + 3)
<u>Answer</u>
c. buying it at a 10 percent discount without sales tax.
<u>Explanation</u>
We are going to compare the 3 choices and then determine the most cost effective.
<em>a. using a paid membership card to buy it at a 10 percent discount.</em>
10% of $100 = 10/100×100 = $10
cost = $100 - $10 = $90
On top of this $90 there is the charges of the membership card.
<em> b. buying it online at a 10 percent discount with a $5 shipping charge.</em>
100%-10% = 90%
90% of 100 = $90
Cost: $90 + $5 = $95
<em>c. buying it at a 10 percent discount without sales tax.</em>
100% - 10% = 90%
90/100 × 100 = $90. This is the must cost effective method since there is no other cost involved.
