The left hand side of the equation is a difference of two squares and may be factored out as follows,
(x - 4)(x + 4) > 0
They may be individually taken as,
x - 4 > 0 ; x > 4
x + 4 > 0 ; x < -4
Thus, the answer to this item is letter A.
Product is multiplication.
Since the answer needs to be greater than 2 either the fraction needs to be an improper fraction ( meaning the fraction would be greater than 1) or the whole number would need to be greater than 2.
One answer would be 5 x 2/3 = 3 1/3

Answer:
(t, u, w) = (1, -2, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
A graphing calculator makes short work of this, giving the solution as ...
(t, u, w) = (1, -2, -2)
__
There are many ways to solve this "by hand." Here's one of them.
Add the first and third equations. Their sum is ...
-3t +4w = -11 . . . . . [eq4]
Add this to twice the second equation. That sum is ...
(-3t +4w) +2(-4t -2w) = (-11) +2(0)
-11t = -11
t = 1
Substituting this into the second equation gives ...
-4(1) -2w = 0
w +2 = 0 . . . . divide by -2
w = -2 . . . . add -2
Substituting for t in the third equation lets us find u.
2(1) -2u = 6
-1 +u = -3 . . . . . divide by -2
u = -2 . . . . add 1
The solution is (t, u, w) = (1, -2, -2).

√[(x'-x)^2+(y'-y)^2]
√(-2-(-7)^2+(0-(-4)^2
√(5^2)+(4^2)
