Rewrite it in the form a^2 - b^2, where a = 5x and b = 8
(5x)^2 - 8^2
Use the Difference of Squares; a^2 - b^2 = (a + b)(a - b)
<u>= C. (5x - 8)(5x + 8)</u>
Multiply 2/3 by 8 and you will get 16/3 or 5.33 repeating.
Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is -2x^3+10x^2
The annual interest rate is 3.5%.
Solution:
Given Interest (I) = $26.25
Principal (P) = $500
Time (t) = 18 months
Rate of interest (r) = ?
Time must be in years to find the rate per annum.
1 year = 12 months
Divide the time by 12.
Time (t) =
years
Now, find the rate of interest using simple interest formula.
<u>Simple interest formula:</u>






⇒ r = 3.5%
Hence the annual interest rate is 3.5%.
