Answer:
(x - 2)(x + 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
x² - 4 ← is a difference of squares and factors in general as
a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b), that is a product of two binomials
Given
x² - 4
= x² - 2²
= (x - 2)(x + 2)
Answer:
The size of the cardboard should be 
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image
The volume of the box is 
The length and the Width of the card is
L = W = Z
From the question we are told that 7 in squares were cut from each corner
So the length and the width of the box would be
L = W = (Z - 7)
And the height would be H = 7 in
Mathematically the volume of the box can be represented as

So the Volume would be
Substituting values


=> 

Step-by-step explanation:
The approximate tip is - 12.30$
Because bill is 81.79$
and tip - 15%
therefore bill amount divided by 15/100
==> 81.79* 15% is 12.30$
The given sequence is
a₁, a₂, ...,

Because the given sequence is an arithmetic progression (AP), the equation satisfied is

where
d = the common difference.
The common difference may be determined as
d = a₂ - a₁
The common difference is the difference between successive terms, therefore
d = a₃ - a₂ = a₄ - a₃, and so on..
The sum of the first n terms is

Example:
For the arithmetic sequence
1,3,5, ...,
the common difference is d= 3 - 1 = 2.
The n-th term is

For example, the 10-term is
a₁₀ = 1 + (10-1)*2 = 19
Th sum of th first 10 terms is
S₁₀ = (10/2)*(1 + 19) = 100
I’m assuming a. Or 26 since it’s the only number within the range
