Answer: the final mass of the solid is 176 grams.
Step-by-step explanation:
The "change" between two quantities, one initial Qi and one final Qf is defined as:
Change = Qf - Qi.
In this case, the quantity is mass, and we know that the initial mass is 260 grams.
And we also know that the change is -84 grams.
Then we have the equation:
Qf - 260 g = -84g
Qf = -84g + 260g = 176g
So the final mass of the solid is 176 grams.
P² + 14p + 40
= p² + 10p + 4p + 40
= p(p+10) + 4(p+10)
= (p+10)(p+4)
P=15.5 would be the answer
900 is the answer of 2 squared times 15 squared
