Answer:
a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b) where a=4x and b=5. (4x+5)(4x-5)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since both terms are perfect squares,factor using the difference of squares formula
Mom drove for 11 hours.
Dad drove for 3 hours.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
- Total distance = 895 miles
- Mom drove a speed of 65 mph
- Dad drove a speed of 60 mph
Let 'x' be the number of hours drove by mom.
Let 'y' be the number of hours drove by dad.
x + y = 14 ---------------(1)
65x + 60y = 895 ---------(2)
Multiply eq(1) by 60 and subtract eq(2) from (1),
60x + 60y = 840
-(<u>65x + 60y = 895</u>)
<u> -5x = -55 </u>
x = 55/5
x = 11
∴ Mom drove for 11 hours.
Substitute x=11 in eq(1)
11+y = 14
y = 3
∴ Dad drove for 3 hours.
Answer:
x=9
Step-by-step explanation:
when two chords intersects each other, then the product of their segments is equal.
JNxNK = LN x NM
3 *x = 2 * 6
x = (3*6)/2 = 18/2 = 9
Answer:
The answer to your question is 192 pretzels
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
number of pieces = 8
length of each piece = 2 ft
length of each pretzel = 1 in
number of pretzels = x
Process
1.- Convert ft to in
1 ft --------------- 12 in
2 ft --------------- x
x = (2 x 12) / 1
x = 24 ft
2.- Divide the length of each piece by the length of each pretzel
24/1 = 24 pretzels per piece
3.- Multiply the number of pretzels per the number of pieces
24 x 8 = 192 pretzels
