It factors to (x+12)(x-12)
This is the same as (x-12)(x+12) as we can multiply two expressions in any order we want. This is like saying 7*5 is the same as 5*7
I used the difference of squares rule to factor x^2 - 144. It might help to write x^2 - 144 as x^2 - 12^2, then compare it to a^2 - b^2 = (a-b)(a+b)
Answer:
None of these choices are correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
If a bond is quoted at 99.875, it means that it is sold at 99.875% of the face value;
Face value = 1000
Therefore, Price = 0.99875 * 1000
Price = $998.75
If Leona pays 5.5% of the selling price, it means that she is paying additional cost which will make the total cost more than the quoted price;
5.5% of 998.75 is;
0.055*998.75 = $54.93
The total cost = $998.75 +$54.93
= $1053.68
Therefore, none of the given choices is correct.
2L + 2W = 48
L= 15 feet
substitute the given value to the formula provided.
2(15) + 2W = 48
multiply 2 by 15
30 + 2W = 48
use the subtraction property of equality to cancel the value 30 on the left side.
30 - 30 + 2W = 48 - 30
cancel 30 on the left side leaving 2W while subtract 30 from 48.
2W = 18
divide both sides to get the value of the width.
2W/2 = 18/2
W = 9ft this is the final answer.
