Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$p^{4}$ - 16 ← difference of 2 squares and factors in general as

a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b)

$p^{4}$ - 16

= (p² )² - 4²

= (p² - 4)(p² + 4) ← (p² - 4) is also a difference of squares

= (p - 2)(p + 2)(p² + 4)

A piece of driftwood floats on the surface of the ocean. Due to the wave motion, its height rises and falls relative to the heig

Black_prince [1.1K]

Assuming that both the max and min heights of the wave are multiplied by 4, the new max height is 2*4 =8ft, and the min height is -1.5*4 =-6ft.

What is the minimum height of the driftwood in the storm? -6ft.
What is the distance between the maximum and minimum heights of the driftwood during the storm? 8ft-(-6ft)=14 ft.
