<h3>Answer: (2x-y)(2x+y)</h3>

===========================================

Work Shown:

4x^2 - y^2

(2x)^2 - (y)^2

(2x-y)(2x+y)

When going from the second step to the third step, I used the difference of squares rule. That rule is a^2-b^2 = (a-b)(a+b). In this case, a = 2x and b = y.

Side note: (2x-y)(2x+y) is the same as (2x+y)(2x-y). We can multiply in any order.

A pearl is formed in 1 of every 10,000 oysters. What percent of oysters make pearls? Hint: An answer of 1, percent would mean 1

zysi [14]

It would be 0.001 because if 1 is for 100 oysters, then you would add two zero's in front and move the decimal point over twice, therefore you get 0.001% as your answer.

What is the value of the digit in the tens place in the number below? What is the value of the figet in the hundreds place. Expl

Makovka662 [10]

The value in the 10 digits place is 6, because the tenths place is like a centimeter, and the digit in the hundreds place, is 6 again, because it is 10 times greater than the tenths place.

The tables below show four sets of data:

vovangra [49]

Answer:

Hence, the set that represent a negative linear association between x and y is:

Set A.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given 4 sets of data as:

x 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

y 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2

x 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

y 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11

x 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

y 8 6 5 4 3.5 3 2.5 2 2

x 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9

y 1 2.5 2.5 3 4 5 6 8 9

We are asked to determine the set which represent negative linear association between x and y?

Clearly in Set B and Set D the values of y keeps on increasing as the value of x increases; hence they both represent a positive linear association between x and y.
In set C the relationship is non-linear though it is negative.
Clearly in Set A we could see that the the y is related to x as:

y=11-x or y= -x+11.

Hence, clearly we could see that the relationship is linear and also negative as the value of y keeps on decreasing with increasing x.

Hence, the set that represent a negative linear association between x and y is:

Set A.
