The answer to letter A is (x-y)² because if x=5 and y= -3 the problem would be (5-(-3))² and when you have -- that means you add. ik weird right. So basically that would be 8² which equals 64. Rather then the other one which was (x+y)² because again that would be (5+(-3))² but different because of the addition sign. so, that's asking what 5-3 is which is 2² which equals 4. Making (x-y)² bigger. I hope this helped
Since we know that 1/4 is equal to 25%, or 0.25 in decimal form, we are able to work with 0.75 in the expression.
We are told to use j as the original price of the jeans, so we can set up the expression:

to represent the cost of the jeans with the discount.
Then to simplify, we simply take out j as a common factor, and solve what's in the parentheses:

or 
Using this equation, we can solve for the b part of the question. If the pair of jeans originally costs $60, plug in 60 to where j is in the expression:


Therefore, the cost of the jeans after the discount is C) $45.
Answer:
<em>[22,42]</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Division
</u>
We must find an interval for the number of visits Casey needs to make to her parents to earn the gold status. The lower limit for that status is 16500 miles.
Each round trip flight Casey takes to visit her parents is 750 miles long. To know the minimum number of visits needed, we divide 16500 / 750= 22. To know the maximum number of visits, we divide 31500 / 750 = 42.
Thus, to earn the gold status at awesome airlines, Casey must go between 22 and 42 times to visit her parents. Expressing in interval notation: [22,42]
