We have

so this is indeed a difference of squares. Factorizing would give

making the answer D.
We can further factor the first term here and write

but that's clearly out of the scope of this question.
Rewrite it in the form a^2 - b^2, where a = 5x and b = 8
(5x)^2 - 8^2
Use the Difference of Squares; a^2 - b^2 = (a + b)(a - b)
<u>= C. (5x - 8)(5x + 8)</u>
Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is A, 13. Since we know line DB is a median (the middle), it tells us that line BC must equal line AB. Simply just do 26/2.
