Yes his reasoning is correct because you can not cut a person in half. you can not be born with half of a body so you would have to round your result to the nearest whole number which in this case is 2 so he would technically be correct
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
cannot be factorised in the form (x+b)(x-b) unless one of the b's is zero, so I wonder if the expression is incomplete?
To factorise
, take out the common factor
:

Therefore, x = 0 and x = 4
- - - - - - - - -
factorised in the form (x+b)(x-b) would be 
but it is not usual to have a zero in a factorised form.
775 + 4.25 times the number 12
Answer:
40.4%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Initial depth= 5feet
Final depth= 5-3.2+6.6= 8.4feet
Hence the percent change
% change= FInal-initial/final*100
% change= 8.4-5/8.4*100
% change= 3.4/8.4*100
% change= 0.404*100
% change=40.4%
Hence the percent change is 40.4%
