What is (a+b)(a-b) equal

Answers

Answer:a squared-b squared

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

[tex](a+b)(a-b)=a^{2} -b^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a example of remarkable identities.

We know that the result of multiplication is called product and the values ​​that multiply are called factors.

We call remarkable identities to certain algebraic expressions with binomial products very frequent in the calculation.

For this example, we got a Product of the sum for the difference of two binomials.

[tex](a+b)(a-b)[/tex]

The product of the sum for the difference of two binomials is equal to the square of the first quantity, minus the square of the second.

[tex](a+b)(a-b)=a^{2} -b^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

(7x^2-5x+3)+(2x^2+3x-1) is equivalent to expression B .

(3x^2-4x-4)+(-12x^2+2x+11) is equivalent to expression A .

(4x^2-3x-9)+(5x^2+5x+2) is equivalent to expression C .

You combine like terms to arrive with the answer.

Hello!

The answer is:

- The first operation match with the polynomial:

B.  [tex]9x^{2} -2x+2[/tex]

- The second operation match with the polynomial:

A. [tex]-9x^{2}-2x+7[/tex]

- The third operation match with the polynomial:

C. [tex]9x^{2} +2x-7[/tex]

Why?

In order to solve the given operations, we need to group the like terms.

Remember, like terms are terms that share the same variable and the same exponent.

For example:

[tex]x^{2} +2x^{2} +3x^{3} +2=3x^{2} +3x^{3} +2[/tex]

We only operate with the variables that shares the same exponent.

Also, we need to remember the distributive property:

[tex](a+b)(c+d)=ac+ad+bc+bd[/tex]

So, we are given the following polynomials:

[tex]A.9x^{2} -2x+7\\\\B. 9x^{2} -2x+2\\\\C. 9x^{2} +2x-7[/tex]

And we need to perform the following operations:

First operation,

[tex](7x^{2}-5x+3)+(2x^{2} +3x-1)=7x^{2} +2x^{2} -5x+3x+3-1\\\\7x^{2} +2x^{2} -5x+3x+3-1=9x^{2} -2x+2[/tex]

So, the first operation match with the polynomial:

B.  [tex]9x^{2} -2x+2[/tex]

Second operation,

[tex](3x^{2}-4x-4)+(-12x^{2}+2x+11)=3x^{2} -12x^{2} -4x+2x-4+11\\\\3x^{2} -12x^{2} -4x+2x-4+11=-9x^{2}-2x+7[/tex]

So, the second operation match with the polynomial:

A. [tex]-9x^{2}-2x+7[/tex]

Third operation,

[tex](4x^{2} -3x-9)+(5x^{2} +5x+2)=4x^{2}+5x^{2} -3x+5x-9+2\\\\4x^{2}+5x^{2} -3x+5x-9+2=9x^{2} +2x-7[/tex]

So, the second operation match with the polynomial:

C. [tex]9x^{2} +2x-7[/tex]

What is the length of chord ST in P below

Answers

Answer:

A. 7 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The correct option is A. The length of chord ST in P is 7 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: QR=7, distance between center and QR is 3.2 units and the distance between center and ST is 3.2 units.

If two chords are equidistant from the center of the circle, then the length of both chords are same.

From the given figure it is clear that the two chords QR and ST are equidistant from the center of the circle,so the length of both chords are same.

[tex]QR=ST[/tex]

[tex]7=ST[/tex]

The length of chord ST in P is 7 units. Therefore the correct option is A.

A(triangle) = ((21 - 12) * 16) / 2 = 72

A(figure) = 294 + 72 = 366

Answer:

B 366 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 21 by 14 to find area of the rectangle

21 × 14 = 294

Subtract 12 from 21

21 - 12 = 9

Multiply 9 by 16

144

Divide 144 by 2 to get area of triangle

144 ÷ 2 = 72

Add 72 with 294 to get final answer

Find m∠1 if m∠2=73°, m∠3=107°, m∠4=92°. Justify your response!

Answers

Answer:

92°

Step-by-step explanation:

The supplementary relationship between angles 2 and 3 means lines a and b are parallel. Since those lines are parallel, corresponding angles 1 and 4 are congruent.

m∠1 = m∠4 = 92°

I need the measurement of each angle (please show work)

Answers

Answer:

∠E = ∠F = 41°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°

Sum the 3 given angles and equate to 180

x + x + 98 = 180 ( subtract 98 from both sides )

2x = 82 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 41

Hence

∠E = ∠F = 41°

You need to remember that the circumference of a circle can be calculated with this formula:

Where "r" is the radius of the circle and [tex]\pi =3.14[/tex]

In this case the distance 150 feet (From the edge of the track to the center of the circle) is the radius.

Since she walks her horse 4 times around the track, you need to multiply the circumference by 4 to calculate the approximate number of feet that she and her horse will travel:

 [tex]C=4[2(3.14)(150ft)]=3,768ft[/tex]

A circle has a radius of 16 inches. to the nearest inch, what is the the length of an arc of the circle that is intercepted by a central angle of 80 degrees

Final answer:

The length of the arc intercepted by a central angle of 80 degrees in a circle with a radius of 16 inches is approximately 22 inches to the nearest inch.

Explanation:

To find the arc length of a circle that is intercepted by a central angle of 80 degrees, we first need to know the formula for the circumference of a circle, which is 2πr.

In a full circle, which is 360 degrees, the arc length is equal to the circumference. However, because we are only dealing with an 80-degree angle, we need to find the fraction of the circumference that corresponds to this angle. The formula to calculate the arc length (As) for any given angle (Θ) in degrees is:

As = (2πr * Θ) / 360

Given a radius (r) of 16 inches, and a central angle of 80 degrees, the arc length is:

As = (2π * 16 * 80) / 360 ≈ (100.53 inches * 80) / 360 ≈ 8033.6 / 360 ≈ 22.3 inches

Therefore, to the nearest inch, the length of the arc is 22 inches.

10) What is the base of the triangle?

From this triangle we know:

THE AREA:

THE HEIGHT:

We know that the area, height, and base of a triangle are related according to the following formula:

[tex]A=\frac{BH}{2} \\ \\ Substituting \ H: \\ \\ A=\frac{B(B+12)}{2} \\ \\ Substituting \ A: \\ \\  80=\frac{B(B+12)}{2} \\ \\ 2(80)=B(B+12) \\ \\ 160=B^2+12B \\ \\ B^2+12B-160=0[/tex]

Solving B by quadratic formula:

We must use the formula:

[tex]h(t)=-5.2t^2+v_{0}t+h_{0}[/tex]

Since James drops the balloon from a height of 45m, then this is the initial height, so [tex]h_{0}=45m[/tex]. Moreover, at the very instant he drops the balloon the initial velocity is zero, so [tex]v_{0}=0[/tex]. When the ballon hit the ground [tex]h(t)=0[/tex]. Therefore:

[tex]0=-5.2t^2+45[/tex]

Solving this equation:

[tex]5.2t^2=45 \\ \\ t^2=\frac{45}{5.2} \\ \\ t^2=8.653 \\ \\ t=\sqrt{8.653} \\ \\ t=2.941s[/tex]

[tex]\boxed{t=2.9s}[/tex]

Finally, the water balloon will hit the ground after 2.9 seconds.

(0, 6) and (1, 2)
(−1, 0) and (6, 0)

Answers

Answer:

option B

(−1, 0) and (0, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question two equations,

Equation 1

y =−x² + 5x + 6

Equation 2

−6x + y = 6

plug value of y in second equation

−6x −x² + 5x + 6 = 6

-x² -6x + 5x +6 - 6 = 0

-x² - x + 0 = 0

-x² -x = 0

-x(x+1) = 0

x = 0

and

x = -1

plug value of x in second equation to find y

x = 0

−6(0) + y = 6

 0 + y = 6

 y = 6

 and

x = -1

−6(-1) + y = 6

6 + y = 6

y = 0

Answer:

(−1, 0) and (0, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system of equations is

[tex]y=-x^2+5x+6[/tex]

and

[tex]-6x+y=6[/tex]

Solve for y in this second equation

[tex]y=6x+6[/tex]

We equate the two equations to get;

[tex]-x^2+5x+6=6x+6[/tex]

[tex]x^2+x=0[/tex]

[tex]x(x+1)=0[/tex]

x=0,x=-1

When x=0,

y=6(0)+6

y=6

When x=-1

y=6(-1)+6

y=0
