First, factor out 5:
5 (x² -x -20)
We need two numbers that add to -1 and multiply to -20. -5 and 4 satisfy this.
5(x-5)(x+4)
She has 64 cups
1 gallon is 16 cups
The answer is D. Best of luck!
Let S=larger square side and s=smaller square side. The area between the larger and smaller is simple the larger area minus the smaller area. The area of any square being s^2. So our remaining area is:
A=S^2-s^2
A=144-49=95 cm^2
