Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(a-b)² = a²-2ab + b²

(a+b)(a-b)=a²-b²

\frac{\sqrt{a+1} -2}{\sqrt{a+1}+2}= \frac{(\sqrt{a+1}-2)(\sqrt{a+1}-2 )}{(\sqrt{a+1}+2 )(\sqrt{a+1}-2)}\\\\

             =\frac{(\sqrt{a+1}-2 )^{2}}{(\sqrt{a+1} )^{2}-2^{2}}\\\\=\frac{(\sqrt{a+1})^ {2}-2*\sqrt{a+1}*2+2^{2} }{a+1-4}\\\\=\frac{a+1 - 4\sqrt{a+1}+4 }{a-3}\\\\=\frac{a+5-4\sqrt{a+1} }{a-3}

olga55 [171]

Answer:

possible?? but I think that there is a typo, and that there would not be a bias

Step-by-step explanation:

can we assume that there are no typos in the question

he threw BUTTONS in the air, and look at buttons that landed with the BOTTOMS facing up ??? in that case the weight might bias the orientation of the landing... I think that you have a typo and it just says that he collected 14 BUTTONS, in that case given that they are "IDENTICAL" we most likely can assume that there would be no bias (size color, texture are all the same)
