Answer:

The product of (a+b)(a-b)  is a^2 - b^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Use FOIL to explain how to find the product of (a + b)(a − b)

FOIL is

Multiply First terms : a*a = a^2

Multiply Outside terms : a* -b = -ab

Multiply Inner  terms : b * a= ab

Multiply last terms : b * -b = -b^2

now we combine all the terms

a^2 -ab+ab - b^2

combine like terms

a^2 - b^2

The product of (a+b)(a-b)  is a^2 - b^2

Shortcut is we apply an identity

a^2 - b^2 = (a+b)(a-b)

In the right triangle shown, the third side can be represented by the expression
Westkost [7]

The third side can be represented by D) x = \sqrt{z^{2} } -y^{2} .

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

According to the Pythagorean theorem, the square of the hypotenuse will be equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

In the given triangle, the hypotenuse is the side that is represented by z. Another side on the triangle is represented by the value y.

Step 2:

Assume the other side of the triangle measures x units.

So according to the Pythagorean theorem,

z^{2}  = x^{2} +y^{2} , x^{2} = z^{2} - y^{2} .

x = \sqrt{z^{2} } -y^{2} which is option D.

What is the slope of a line parallel to y=1/3x + 2 explain.
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

since you're finding the parallel it would have the same slope since it is parallel and since this equation is already in slope-intercept form, you can see that 1/3 is the slope

Write two addition sentences where the sum is zero. Describe the numbers.
Neko [114]
0+0=0    0+0=0+0

They are all addition, and they are all 0, and since 0 equals nothing, the sum is equivalent to 0!
