This should be recognized as the difference of perfect squares which is of the form:
(a^2-b^2) and the difference of squares always factors to:
(a-b)(a+b) in this case:
(3x-8)(3x+8)
4/7 is the simplest form
You can divide 20 by 5 and get 4 and divide 35 by 5 and get 7
Answer: Y=3, X=5
Step-by-step explanation:
2(2y-1) + 3y=19
4y-2+ 3y=19
7y=21
Y=3
Plug in y in the second equals
X=2(3) -1
X=6-1
X=5
Hope this helps!
Slope = m
Equation to find slope is:
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
2 points:
(4,-2) 4 = x1 and -2 = y1
(8,5) 8 = x2 and 5 = y2
So...
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
m = (5 - (-2)) / (8 - 4)
m = 7 / 4 or 1.75
Therefore, the slope of the line is 7/4 OR 1.75.

Answer: Choice E</h3>
======================================================
Explanation:
Think of 25 as 25/1 and 5 as 5/1
Choice E is really saying 
which becomes 
. Note the second fraction flips and we change to a multiplication sign.

Or you could think of it like this:
to help see why the answer is E.
