Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

No. You can see why if you remove the brackets.

y=x^2 - 3x.

A linear function must have x and y with powers of 1. Also it can't something like x^2 - y^2 = 5

x^2 - y^2 = 0 is the only exception I can think of, but that really is a system of equations. If you graph it. you get two equations which cross at 0 and nowhere else.

What is one third the difference between 3/4 and 2/3?

Ivan

Answer:

One third the difference between 3/4 and 2/3 is $(\frac{1}{36} )$

Step-by-step explanation:

One third the difference of A and B = $\frac{1}{3} \times (A-B)$

Here, as given in the question:

$A = \frac{3}{4} , B = \frac{2}{3} \\\implies A - B = \frac{3}{4} - \frac{2}{3}\\=(\frac{3 \times 3 -2 \times 4}{12}) = (\frac{9-8}{12} ) = (\frac{1}{12})\\ \implies A - B = (\frac{1}{12})$
