Answer:

(a - b)^2 = 49 - 4b^2 +2ab

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: a^2 + b^2 = 7b (assuming A is really “a”)

b^2 + (2b - a)^2 = 7^2

Find; (a - b)^2

Plan: Use Algebraic Manipulation

Start with b^2 + (2b - a)^2 = 7^2 =>

b^2 + 4b^2 - 4ab + a^2 = 49 by expanding the binomial.

a^2 + b^2 + 4b^2 - 4ab = 49 rearranging terms

a^2 + b^2 -2ab - 2ab + 4b^2 = 49 =>

a^2 - 2ab + b^2 = 49 - 4b^2 +2ab rearranging and subtracting 4b^2 and adding 2ab to both sides of the equation and by factoring a^2 - 2ab + b^2

(a - b)^2 = 49 - 4b^2 +2ab

Double Check: recalculated ✅ ✅

(a - b)^2 = 49 - 4b^2 +2ab

Artyom0805 [142]

<u>Yes the first one is correct because n squared is n with the 2 above it and adding it to three gets your first answer and then the three on the outside means to multiply so your first response is correct.</u>
