25x^2-16 how to factor

Mathematics
1 answer:
kotykmax [81]2 years ago
4 0

Did you learn how to factor the difference of two squares ?

This thing is the difference of two squares.

The first term is the square of      5x .
The second term is the square of  4 .

When it's factored, it's

              (sum of the square roots) x (difference of the square roots) .

               25 x² - 16     =     (5x + 4) times (5x - 4) .

To check it, go ahead and FOIL that out, and you'll get    25x²-16 .

A tank sprung a leak in the water level started drop from 24.8 m at a rate of 2 m/h. Right and solve an equation to determine ho
malfutka [58]

Answer:

8 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial water level is 24.8 meters, and the rate of water level drop is 2 meters/ hour, that means after t hours the water level L will be

L =24.8-2t

Now we want water level to be 8.8 meters, I.e L=8.8m, therefore, we have:

L=8.8=24.8-2t

we solve the equation for t:

8.8=24.8-2t\\8.8+2t=24.8\\2t=24.8-8.8\\2t=16\\\\\boxed{t=8}

it will take 8 hours for the water level to drop to 8.8 meters.

John and Martha are contemplating having children, but John’s brother has galactosemia (an autosomal recessive disease) and Mart
Rina8888 [55]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

Probability=\frac{1}{24}

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

As the question states,

John's brother has Galactosemia which states that his parents were both the carriers.

Therefore, the chances for the John to have the disease is = 2/3

Now,

Martha's great-grandmother also had the disease that means her children definitely carried the disease means probability of 1.

Now, one of those children married with a person.

So,

Probability for the child to have disease will be = 1/2

Now, again the child's child (Martha) probability for having the disease is = 1/2.

Therefore,

<u>The total probability for Martha's first child to be diagnosed with Galactosemia will be,</u>

Probability=\frac{2}{3}\times \frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{2}\times \frac{1}{4}\\Probability=\frac{1}{24}

(Here, we assumed that the child has the disease therefore, the probability was taken to be = 1/4.)

<em><u>Hence, the probability for the first child to have Galactosemia is \frac{1}{24}</u></em>
