Step-by-step explanation:
I am not sure what exactly you mean.
do you mean the complete square of an expression or
term ?
if so, then by multiplying this term by itself, and that means in general, every part is multiplied by every part and the part results are added considering the signs involved.
e.g.
squaring a+b
(a+b)(a+b) = a×a + a×b + b×a + b×b = a² + 2ab + b²
remember that multiplication and addition are commutative (you can flip the right and left sides with each other and still get the same result : a+b = b+a, a×b = b×a).
squaring a-b
(a-b)(a-b) = a×a + a×-b + -b×a + -b×-b = a² - 2ab + b²
remember that
+×- = -×+ = -
-×- = +
+×+ = +
a more complex example ?
squaring a-b+c
(a-b+c)(a-b+c) =
= a×a + a×-b + a×c + -b×a + -b×-b + -b×c + c×a + c×-b + c×c =
= a² - 2ab - 2bc + 2ac + b² + c²
Sorry I just want points 2.001 trust me
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we have

Plot the vertices
see the attached figure
The shorter diagonal is SU
the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to
we have

substitute
''Decreased'' means subtract and ''times'' means multiplication so the algebraic expression should be 15 - 2 * p.
