5x2 - 2y2 Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3.1 Factoring: 5x2-2y2
Theory : A difference of two perfect squares, A2 - B2 can be factored into (A+B) • (A-B)
Proof : (A+B) • (A-B) =
A2 - AB + BA - B2 =
A2 - AB + AB - B2 =
A2 - B2
Note : AB = BA is the commutative property of multiplication.
Note : - AB + AB equals zero and is therefore eliminated from the expression.
Check : 5 is not a square !!
Ruling : Binomial can not be factored as the
difference of two perfect squares
Use a factor tree to express 60 as a product of prime factors. So the prime factorization of 60 is 2 × 2 × 3 × 5, which can be written as 2 2 × 3 × 5. The actual prime factors of 60 are 2, 3, and 5.
Here's the given:
P=$400
i=7.5%
A=$8500
The formula used for this problem is:
A = P(1+i)^t
Manipulating the equation to arrive at t, we have:
t = ln(A/P) / ln(1+i)
Plugging in values:
t = ln($8500/$400) / ln(1+0.075)
t = 42.26 years
35+2x=20+2.50x
subtract 2.50x
35+0.50x=20
subtract 35 frim both sides
0.50x=-15
x=-30
