Answer:
if we take the number of quarters Barrett have to be x we know Penelope has twice that ie 2x. so in total they have 2x+x = 60, 3x = 60; so x= 60/3 = 20.
Barrett has 20 quarters.
M^2 - 2mn + n^2
(-2)^2 -2(-2)(4) + 4^2
4 + 16 + 16
36

We are asked to evaluate
.

- The notation |x| denotes absolute value.
The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero.
Absolute value is always positive; distances can't be negative, right?
So we need to find the absolute value of 98, which is:

Remember this...

Hope it helps you out! :D

Answer:
$11.76
Step-by-step explanation:
We first need to find the amount of plywood for all birdhouses.
2 3/5 * 8 = 104/5 or 20.8 or 20 4/5
Now we can solve the cost for all the birdhouses by multiplying the total amount of plywood needed by the price per square foot.
20.8 * 0.56 = $11.648 or estimated $11.65
Remember, the question might be different, so don't submit anything yet. If the people who sell the plywood only sell in integer numbers (meaning you can't buy 4/5 of a square foot of wood but can only by amounts with no fractions), then Jenna must buy 21 square feet of plywood and will have a little bit of wood left over. Now solve just like before.
21 * 0.56 = $11.76
Therefore the answer is $11.76 if she can only buy an integer amount of plywood or estimated $11.65. I think the best answer is 11.76.
