Every difference of squares problem can be factored as follows: a2 – b2 = (a + b)(a – b) or (a – b)(a + b). So, all you need to do to factor these types of problems is to determine what numbers squares will produce the desired results.
The answer is 17 1/4...but you probably can’t have 1/4 of a pie, so Mat can make a total of 17 pies
Answer:
1:3
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the probability of selecting a certain type of item from a collection, simply divide the number of items of that type by the total number of items.
There are 3 + 2 + 1 = 6 marbles in total. There are 2 yellow marbles, so the probability of choosing a yellow marble on the first draw is 2/6. This can be further simplified to 1:3.
12x2= $24
24+28+45= $97
So $97 is 100%
So 100%-30% =70% (30% off)
(note: 70% = 70/100 = 0.7)
97 x 0.7 = $67.90
