Answer:
1 Use Difference of Squares:
a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a−b).
10(x^2-4^2)
2 Simplify 4^2 to 16
10(x^2 −16)
3 Expand by distributing terms.
10x^2 −160

Answer:
13.8
Step-by-step explanation:
His dive once he hits the water and goes below the surface water line is in the same direction as his dive off the platform. That's very important when you start to consider direction. So you add. Be sure and read this paragraph again.
Dive = platform + under the surface
Dive = 10 + 3.8
Dive = 13.8
We can solve this by finding one of the numbers first
Let the smaller number be y.
Since these 2 numbers are consecutive odd numbers, the larger number should be 2 more than the smaller one (y+2).
Therefore,
y + (y+2) = 284
2y +2 = 284
shift +2 to the other side and turn it into -2
2y = 284 - 2
2y = 282
shift x2 to the other side and turn it into /2
y = 282/2
y = 141
Now we got the smaller number, which is 141, we can also find the larger number by adding 2 to it. 141+2 = 143,
Therefore, your answer is 141 and 143
