The three scores are 86, 74, and an unknown score x. The average (i.e. the sum divided by how many there are) is 80, so we have

\dfrac{86+74+x}{3}=80

Multiply both sides by 3 and you get

160+x=240

Subtract 160 from both sides to get

x=240-160=80

Note: you could solve this exercise very quickly if you notice that the two numbers, 86 and 74, are symmetrical with respect to 80, which is the average. So, the third number must be the average.

Define a polynomial that is a difference of squares. How do you know that it is the difference of squares? How is it factored?
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

When an expression can be viewed as the difference of two perfect squares, i.e. a²-b², then we can factor it as (a+b)(a-b). For example, x²-25 can be factored as (x+5)(x-5). This method is based on the pattern (a+b)(a-b)=a²-b², which can be verified by expanding the parentheses in (a+b)(a-b).

Step-by-step explanation:

lol it’s on wassa name ;) mark me brainliest? Btw

Here you go, your equation should look a lot like this:

x²-16 -----> (x+4)(x-4).
