The product of the sum of a and b and their difference.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alchen [17]3 years ago
7 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of the sum of a and b and their difference:

(a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²

Proof:

L = (a + b)(a - b)     <em>use FOIL</em>

L = (a)(a) + (a)(-b) + (b)(a) + (b)(-b)

L = a² - ab + ab - b²         <em>combine like terms</em>

L = a² - b² + (-ab + ab)

L = a² - b²

R = a² - b²

L = R

ycow [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length = 27/4 in

Width = 27/2 in

5.55% of the cake = 5.55/100

= 1/18 

Therefore, 18 equal squares of cake where 1 piece is 5.55 % of the cake

Since, the cake is twice as long as it is wide, so that means cut half the cake (27/4 × 27/4) into 9 pieces.

Therefore, each has a side of 1/3 * 27/4

= 9/4 inches.
