Answer: (n + 5)(n - 5)

Explanation: In this problem, we have a binomial that's the difference of two squares because n² and 25 are both perfect squares and we are subtracting or taking the difference of these two squares.

Since the difference of two squares factors as the product of two binomials, we can setup our parenthses and in the first position, we use the factors of n² that are the same which are n · n.

In the second position, we use +5 and -5 as our factors of -25.

So our answer is (n + 5)(n - 5).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

10^0=1

10^-3 = 1/10^3

4.0=4

so : 1.72×10^0/4.0×10^-3 = (1.72× 10^3)/4 =430

scientific notation is : 4.30× 10^2

A sector of a circle makes a 127° angle at its centre. If the arc of the sector has length 36 mm, find

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

Approximately $68.5\; \rm mm$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the angle of this sector to radians:

$\begin{aligned}\theta &= 127^{\circ} \\ &= 127^{\circ} \times \frac{2\pi}{360^{\circ}} \\ &\approx 2.22\end{aligned}$ .

The formula $s = r\, \theta$ relates the arc length $s$ of a sector of angle $\theta$ (in radians) to the radius $r$ of this sector.

In this question, it is given that the arc length of this sector is $s = 36\; \rm mm$ . It was found that $\theta = 2.22$ radians. Rearrange the equation $s = r\, \theta$ to find the radius $r$ of this sector:
