You can make it easier by replacing x^n with another variable, factoring, then putting x^n back in the end.
Using exponent and algebra rules, rewrite x^2n - 2x^n + 1 as
(x^n)^2 - (2 x x^2) + 1
Then, let x^n = m.
m^2 - 2m + 1
Now factor that: (m - 1)^2
And now put x^n back: (x^n - 1)^2
Answer:
43.82 mph
266.67 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Given :
S = √30fl
S = speed of car
f = drag Coefficient
l = Length of skid mark
If f = 0.8 ; l = 80 feets
s = √30fl
s = √(30*0.8*80)
s = √1920
s = 43.817
s = 43.82 mph
B.)
s = 80 mph
f = 0.8
s = √30fl
80 = √30*0.8*l
80 = √24l
Square both sides
80² = 24l
6400 = 24l
l = 6400/24
l = 266.67 feets
I’m pretty sure it’s -15 but don’t take my word for it
Answer:
36 : 6 and -6
12 = 
1.96 =1.4 and -1.4
0.64 : 0.8 and -0.8
400 : 20 and -20
25/36 = 5/6 and -5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
(-x)^2 = x^2
ALSO
(x)^2 = x^2
thus, square of both negative and positive number is same positive number.
_________________________________________________
36 = 6*6
36 = -6*-6
hence
square roots of 36 is both -6 and 6
12 = 4*3 =

also
12 = 

___________________________________
1.96 = 196/100 = (14/10)^2
1.96 = 196/100 = (-14/10)^2
hence

_______________________________
0.64 = 64/100 = (8/10)^2 = 0.8^2
0.64 = 64/100 = (-8/10)^2 = (-0.8)^2
Thus, square root of 0.64 = 0.8 and -0.8
_________________________________
400 = 20^2
400 = (-20)^2

__________________________________
25/36 = (5/6)^2
25/36 = (-5/6)^2

A graph shows the appropriate choice to be
A. 277.8 °F
_____
Of course, you get the same result by evaluating
76 + 301*e^(-0.40)
