Answer:

(2x + y)(2x - y - 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x² - y² - 2x - y

4x² - y² is a difference of squares and factors in general as

a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b) , then

4x² - y²

= (2x)² - y²

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

expression is now

(2x - y)(2x + y) - (2x + y) ← factor out (2x + y) from each term

= (2x + y)(2x - y - 1)

Dr Wellbee advised his patients to drink 8 eight-ounce glasses of water everyday for every 50 pounds of weight. Kelby drank 168

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Kelby drank 168 glasses of water per week
i.e 24 glasses per day

Since 8 eight-ounce glass of water is for every 50 pounds.
1 eight-ounce glass is for = 50/8 pounds
and 24 glasses of water is for = 50*24/8
= 150pounds

So kelby probably weighs 150 pounds

Calculate the area of the shaded sector. 11.73 11.2 11.4 11.83

laiz [17]

The formula for the area of a circle is

A=πr²
plug in the data we know
A=π4²
A=16π

Since we only we need to find the area of the shaded section, we need to twerk this equation a bit. (remember that the shaded section is 84/360 of the original circle.)

A=84/360*16π
A=11.728
A=11.73 units²

answer: A=11.73 units²
