Answer:
A.
Step-by-step explanation:
C and D do not create any x² terms when doing the multiplications. so, they are out.
B stands for (a+b)×(a-b) = a² - b².
so, that would give us a "-4" at the end and is not fitting to the "+4" term at the end of the original expression.
that leaves us with A.
let's verify :
(4x+2i)(4x-2i)
it follows the same rule as B :
(a+b)(a-b) = a² - b²
a = 4x
b = 2i
you remember, i = sqrt(-1).
so, we get
(4x)² - (2i)² = 16x² - 4×(sqrt(-1))² = 16x² - 4×(-1) = 16x²+4
bingo !
Answer:
2x + 8 < 5x - 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
it equals
x>4
Cost of each shirt bought by Brain = 14.50
Then
Cost of 2 shirts bought by Brain = 2 * 14.50
= 29
Cost of a pair of shoes = 29.99
Total amount spent by Brain before tax = 29 + 29.99
= 58.99
Percentage of sales tax that needs to be paid = 6%
Amount of sales tax that needs to be [paid = (6/100) * 58.99
= 353.94/100
= 3.54
So
the total amount spent by Brain including tax = 58.99 + 3.54
= 62.53
