1. Use Difference of squares: a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)
(x+k)(x-k)=0
2. Solve for x and k
x=+-k
k=+-x
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles aren't similar.
The triangles share a side so we cant use anything involving SSS SAS.

Answer:
Part a) The raisins cost $0.8 per ounce
Part b) 1.25 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The correct question is</em></u>
Jackson bought 5 ounces of raisins for $4 dollars.
a) How much do raisins cost per ounce?
b) How many ounces of raisins can be bought for $1?
Part a) How much do raisins cost per ounce?
we know that
To find out the unit rate divide the total cost by the total weight
so

therefore
The raisins cost $0.8 per ounce
Part b) How many ounces of raisins can be bought for $1?
we know that
The raisins cost $0.8 per ounce
using proportion
Find out how many ounces of raisins can be bought for $1
Let
x -----> the ounces of raisins

First, we know that y is equal to -8x, so we can move the -8x to replace y in the first equation, then in the first equation we get -8x=6x-14, subtract 6x on both sides, -14x=-14, x=1
