Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the ratio of Niamah to Jack is 2:5, that means that for every 2 pencils that N gets, J gets 5. If there are a total of 21 pencils, then

2x + 5x = 21 and

7x = 21 so

x = 3.

That means that N gets 2(3) which is 6, and J gets 5(3) which is 15. Notice that 6:15 is the same ratio as 2:5 when it is reduced.

Answer:

(y + 14)(y - 14)

Step-by-step explanation:

A difference of squares has the general form

a³ - b² and factors as

(a + b)(a - b)

Given

y² - 196

y² = (y)² ⇒ a = y and 196 = 14² ⇒ b = 14

y² - 196

= y² - 14² = (y + 14)(y - 14) ← difference of squares
