Answer:
a factor of 2 is shown, but 4 was factored out
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference of squares is factored as ...
a² -b² = (a +b)(a -b)
Then the given difference of squares factors as ...
144x² -100 = (12x)² -10² = (12x +10)(12x -10)
Each of these factors has a factor of 2 that can be factored out:
= (2(6x +5))(2(6x -5))
= (2·2)(6x +5)(6x -5)
= 4(6x +5)(6x -5)
The first factor should be 4, not 2.
Answer:
Option D is the correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Initial height = 4 feet
Given that the height of the tree increased by a constant amount each year for the next 6 years. At the end of the 6th year, the tree was 1/5th taller than it was at the end of the 4th year.
Let the rate of growing each year be g.
After 6 years height of tree = 4 + 6g
After 4 years height of tree = 4 + 4g
At the end of the 6th year, the tree was 1/5th taller than it was at the end of the 4th year.
That is
Option D is the correct answer.
The answer is B. one hundred four and thirty two ten-thousandths
First of all, you would make 6 1/4 into an improper fraction. This makes it 25/4, then you multiply it by 2 to get 50/8 and have common denominators. Divide that by 1/8, which would be 50. Then since each 1/8 costs 2 dollars you would multiply 50 by 2. So, the answer would be that they made 100 dollars.
Answer:
47
Step-by-step explanation:
The number that should go after 23 is 47.
The pattern seems to be (n * 2) + 1, where n is the value of the previous number.
We start with the number 5:
5
(5 * 2) + 1 = 11
11
(11 * 2) + 1 = 23
23
(23 * 2) + 1 = 47
47
... and so on
The pattern should continue as follows.
Hope this helps!
