Answer:

x^2 - 64

Step-by-step explanation:

A difference of squares is a special product in the form (a^2 - b^2)..their factored form is (a - b)(a + b)..

Thus here a = x and b = 8, thus if x + 8 is a factor, then x - 8 is also a factor..

(x + 8)(x - 8) <-- expand this out using difference of squares rules..

= (x)^2 - (8)^2

= x^2 - 64 <-- answer...

You could also expand that using FOIL (FOIL - first, outer, inner, last)..

(x + 8)(x - 8)

= (x)(x) + (x)(-8) + (8)(x) + (8)(-8)

= x^2 - 8x + 8x - 64 <-- the -8x and 8x cancels out..leaving you with..

= x^2 - 64

The selling price for houses in a neighborhood in West Richland, WA have an approximately normal distribution with a mean sellin

Liula [17]

The probability that the average selling price of the 35 homes will be within $2000 of the true mean is 0.5753

First, we need to find the z-score and this is expressed according to the formula;

$z=\dfrac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

x is the sample space

$\mu$ is the mean value

$\sigma$ is the standard deviation

Given the following parameters

Mean = $275,000

Standard deviation = $10,500

If the true mean is $273,000, then;

$z=\dfrac{273,000-275000}{10,500} \\z = \frac{-2000}{10500}\\z= -0.1905$

If the true mean is $277,000

$z=\dfrac{277,000-275000}{10,500} \\z = \frac{2000}{10500}\\z= 0.1905$

This means that the z-score is between -0.1095 and 0.1095

Pr( -0.1095 ≤ z ≤ 0.1095)

According to the z table, the probability that the average selling price of the 35 homes will be within $2000 of the true mean is 0.5753

Explain why the absolute value of a number will never be negative

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

The absolute value of a number will never be negative because absolute value is the distance from zero, so it will always be positive. For example, you can't be -6 away from 0, you are 6 away from 0.
