Answer:
(x + 4)(x - 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
There are actually quite a lot of pairs of binomials the disproves Eric's conclusion, but they all model after the same special product: a^2 - b^2.
The special product a^2 - b^2 can be factored into (a + b)(a - b) and for all real a and b, it will come out as a binomial.
Here is an example:
(x + 4)(x - 4)
We can use the distributive property to get:
x^2 - 4x + 4x - 16
which is the same as
x^2 - 16
This would disprove Eric's conclusion.
Answer: (use distributive property then add the like terms)
3(2p + 4) - (3p - 4) = 43
6p + 12 - 3p - 4 = 43
3p - 8 = 43
Well add them all up. : 10+15+8+7=40. There are 8 white balls out of 40. 8/40. Find the GCF of them both and simplify them.
8=8 so 8/8 = 1
40=8 so 40/8 = 5 so 1/5 is your answer.
B. is your answer.
