<u>Answer:</u>

x - 2 > 8

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given the following word sentence and we are to translate it into a mathematical inequality:

<em>'2 less than a number is more than 8​'</em>

Breaking down this word sentence into smaller parts to make it easier to translate.

1. 2 less than ---> - 2

2. a number ---> x (or it can be any other number)

3. is more than 8 ---> > 8

Combining all these to get:

x - 2 > 8

Which will result in a difference of squares? (negative 7 x + 4)(negative 7 x + 4) (negative 7 x + 4)(4 minus 7 x) (negative 7 x
nevsk [136]

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;

a^{2}-b^{2}

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

(a-b)(a+b)

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

Mackenzie has a loyalty card good for a 20% discount at her local hardware store. What would her total in dollars and cents be,
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer: $14.0

Step-by-step explanation:

For us to calculate this question, we have to find 20% of $17.45 and then subtract the value gotten from $17.45. This will be:

= $17.45 - (20% × $17.45)

= $17.45 - (0.2 × $17.45)

= $17.45 - $3.49

= $13.96

= $14.0 to nearest cent

Find the area of a regular polygon
Dimas [21]

Answer:

(N-2)x180=sum of interior angles

So (5-2)x180=540

Divided by number of sides=540/4=108... then each angle is 108 divide to triangles ..so they will have 2 angles =54 2 sides =4 the last angle =72 ."of the triangle " area of triangle =1/2xsxsxsin(side in

between)

So 1/2x4x4xsin(72)= then multiply it by 5 as u will have 5 triangles .. so it will be 190.2(probably i tried)

aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Equal df

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a chi square test for goodness of fit is used to examine the distribution of individuals across three categories,

Hence degree of freedom = 3-1 =2

Similarly for a chi-square test for independence is used to examine the distribution of individuals in a 2×3 matrix of categories.

Here degree of freedom = (r-1)(c-1) where r = no of rows and c =no of columns

= (2-1)(3-1) = 2

Thus we find both have equal degrees of freedom.
