The denominator of the first term is a difference of squares, such that
4<em>a</em> ² - <em>b</em> ² = (2<em>a</em>)² - <em>b</em> ² = (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>)
So you can write the fractions as
(4<em>a</em> ² + <em>b</em> ²)/((2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>)) - (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>)/(2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>)
Multiply through the second fraction by 2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em> to get a common denominator:
(4<em>a</em> ² + <em>b</em> ²)/((2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>)) - (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>)²/((2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>))
((4<em>a</em> ² + <em>b</em> ²) - (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>)²) / ((2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>))
Expand the numerator:
(4<em>a</em> ² + <em>b</em> ²) - (2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>)²
(4<em>a</em> ² + <em>b</em> ²) - (4<em>a</em> ² - 4<em>ab</em> + <em>b</em> ²)
4<em>ab</em>
<em />
So the original expression reduces to
4<em>ab</em> / ((2<em>a</em> - <em>b</em>) (2<em>a</em> + <em>b</em>))
or
4<em>ab</em> / (4<em>a</em> ² - <em>b</em> ²)
upon condensing the denominator again.
The answer is 51 Meters. I subtracted the man from the building and it's 51 meters.
Answer:
The growth "rate" (r) is determined as b = 1 + r.
Step-by-step explanation:
A growth factor is the factor by which a quantity multiplies itself over time. When trying to find the growth rate, you have to remember that the original exponential formula was y = ab^x. You will notice that in these new growth and decay functions, the b value (growth factor) has been replaced either by (1 + r) or by (1 - r). The growth "rate" (r) is determined as b = 1 + r.

Answer:
It is 3 hrs.
Step-by-step explanation:
because the ten dollars of initial fee takes off the 25 dollars, we have 15 left, and mike's bikes charges $5/hour, so 15/3+=5
First convert -5/6(b+1) to -5/6b-5/6 which looks like:
1/3b+2/3b-5/6b-5/6
second add 1/3b+2/3b=3/3b, convert to 6/6b so:
6/6b-5/6b-5/6
subtract 6/6b-5/6b = 1/6b so:
1/6b-5/6 is the answer
