This is the best I got Require to make 2 equations with the same repeating part and subtract them to eliminate the repeating part.
begin by letting x = 0.5555555................. (1)
To obtain the same repeating part after the decimal point need to multiply by 10
hence 10x = 5.555555........................(2)
It is important to obtain 2 equations in x, where the recurring part after the decimal points are exactly the same.
now subtract (1) from (2) to obtain fraction
(2) - (1) : <span>9x=5⇒x=<span><span>59</span></span></span>

e) 1.26
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
C) (a-12b)(a+12b)
Step-by-step explanation:
a^2-144b^2 = (a-12b)(a+12b)
This is the formula that when two terms squared are written with a minus sign between them their factors are the product of the original numbers once with a plus sign and once with the minus sign.
This can be explained by multiplying them.
(a-12b)
<u> *(a+12b) </u>
a²- 12ab
<u> +12ab - 144b² </u>
<u> a² +0 - 144b² </u>
We see we get the same answer as applying the formula above.
