He needs at least 2 gallons of the stain; though he will not use all of the second gallon
Answer:
The time-mean speed of the minivans is of 105.8 seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean of a data-set:
The mean of a data-set is the sum of all values in the data-set divided by the number of values.
Five minivans, times of: 98.0, 108.0, 113.0, 108.0, 102.0, in seconds.
Thus, the mean is:

The time-mean speed of the minivans is of 105.8 seconds.
Answer:
(negative 7 x + 4)(negative 7 x minus 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider two real numbers a and b. A difference of squares involving a and b is usually given as;

The difference of the two squares above can be factored to yield;

This implies that in order to have the difference of squares we must have a product involving the difference and the sum of the numbers.
The expression;
(negative 7 x + 4)(negative 7 x minus 4) can also be written as ( 4 - 7x) ( -4 - 7x)
( 4 - 7x) ( -4 - 7x) = ( 4 - 7x) (-1( 4 + 7x)) = -1 *( 4 - 7x) ( 4 + 7x)
Expanding the last expression yields;
-1 (16 + 28x -28x - 49x^2) = -1 (16 - 49x^2) = 49x^2 - 16 which is in deed a difference of squares
