Answer:

(625 • (x4)) - 28y4

54x4 - 28y4 3.1 Factoring: 625x4-256y4

Theory : A difference of two perfect squares, A2 - B2 can be factored into (A+B) • (A-B)

Proof : (A+B) • (A-B) =

A2 - AB + BA - B2 =

A2 - AB + AB - B2 =

A2 - B2Note : AB = BA is the commutative property of multiplication.

Note : - AB + AB equals zero and is therefore eliminated from the expression.

Check : 625 is the square of 25

Check : 256 is the square of 16

Check : x4 is the square of x2

Check : y4 is the square of y2

Factorization is : (25x2 + 16y2) • (25x2 - 16y2) 3.2 Factoring: 25x2 - 16y2

Check : 25 is the square of 5

Check : 16 is the square of 4

Check : x2 is the square of x1

Check : y2 is the square of y1

Factorization is : (5x + 4y) • (5x - 4y)this is the answer: (25x2 + 16y2) •(5x + 4y) • (5x - 4y)

Mack the bug starts at (0,0) at noon and each minute moves one unit right or one unit up. He is trying to get to the point (5,7)

PSYCHO15rus [73]

This is a very nice counting question. Suggestion / Hint: Count how many ways he can get from (0,0) to (5,7) by going through the point (2,3). Then subtract that from ALL POSSIBLE ways he can get from (0,0) to (5,7). Hint for the hint: How many ways he can get from (0,0) to (5,7) by going through the point (2,3)? Well, that's the SUM of how many ways he can get from (0,0) to (2,3) and how many ways he get get from (2,3) to (5,7). Hope this helps! :)

I need help on this question plz

It is convenient to follow directions. Create a chart with activities as column headings. Since the data is divided according to gender, you would put gender on the row headings. Fill in the given numbers (black), and make the totals come out (blue).

The numbers in the row total column are exactly that: the total of the numbers in the row. (A spreadsheet can do the actual addition or subtraction for you.)
