Answer:

18cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the length of the rectangle but we need to find the width which we'll call w. Area is a, l is length.

a = l * w

20 = 5 * w

divide both sides by 5 to cancel the multiplication by 5 on the right side

4 = w

The rectangle is going to have two sides that are the length of l, and two sides that are the the length of w. We're looking for the perimiter p.

p = 2l + 2w

p = (2 * 5) + (2 * 4)

p = 18

The product of (a + b)(a − b) is a2 − b2. (1 point) Sometimes Always Never

jenyasd209 [6]

ANSWER

$\boxed{Always}$
EXPLANATION

The given product is

$( a - b)(a + b)$

This is always equal to

${a}^{2} - {b}^{2}$

The identity

$( a - b)(a + b) = {a}^{2} - {b}^{2}$

is called difference of two squares.

We can verify this by simply expanding the brackets using the distributive property to obtain,

$( a - b)(a + b) = a(a + b) - b(a + b)$

$( a - b)(a + b) = {a}^{2} + ab - ab- {b}^{2}$

This simplifies to

$( a - b)(a + b) = {a}^{2} - {b}^{2}$
