The denominator of the first term is a difference of squares, such that

4<em>a</em> ² - <em>b</em> ² = (2<em>a</em>)² - <em>b</em> ² = (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>)

So you can write the fractions as

(4<em>a</em> ² + <em>b</em> ²)/((2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>)) - (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>)/(2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>)

Multiply through the second fraction by 2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em> to get a common denominator:

(4<em>a</em> ² + <em>b</em> ²)/((2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>)) - (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>)²/((2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>))

((4<em>a</em> ² + <em>b</em> ²) - (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>)²) / ((2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>))

Expand the numerator:

(4<em>a</em> ² + <em>b</em> ²) - (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>)²

(4<em>a</em> ² + <em>b</em> ²) - (4<em>a</em> ² - 4<em>ab</em> + <em>b</em> ²)

4<em>ab</em>

<em />

So the original expression reduces to

4<em>ab</em> / ((2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>))

or

4<em>ab</em> / (4<em>a</em> ² - <em>b</em> ²)

upon condensing the denominator again.

99 POINTS WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!! No fake answers!
bazaltina [42]

He has a 26% of getting a strike, which means he has a 74% chance of not getting a strike ( 100% - 26% = 74%).

Multiply the chance of not getting a strike by the number of attempts:

0.74 x 0.74 x 0.74 x 0.74 x 0.74 = 0.22

The answer is B) 0.22

The probability of making a free throw is 77%, the probability of not making one would be 23% ( 100% - 77% = 23%).

Add the probability of making the first one ( 0.77) by the probability of making the second one multiplied by the probability of missing the second one ( 0.77x 0.23)

0.77 + (0.77 x 0.23)

0.77 + 0.18 = 0.95

The answer is D) 95%

Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

If it is not a perfect square, then the original number cannot be a perfect square. 125 is not a perfect square [nor is 53 or 35], so 1953125 cannot be a perfect square.

Komok [63]
After 2 hours she wrote 3 entries.
after 4 hours she wrote 6 entries.
This means that for same period she is writing same number of entries which means her "writing speed" is constant.
that means that graph is linear function (straight line).

slope we calculate by putting coordinates of y and x of any dot on that line. we can use one of those given by text of task. (in 2 hours she wrote 3 entries)
y = k*x
k = y/x
k = 1.5
