Answer:
x=81
Step-by-step explanation:
all triangles = 180 degrees
180 - 18 = 162
162/2 = 81
81 is your answer
Given: Different equations
To Determine: Which would be best solved using difference of two squares
Solution
The factorization of a difference of two squares is given below
Let us examine each of the given equation
From the above,
The two equation above can be solved by difference of two square, but the equation below is the easiest solved using differnce of two square
x² - 25 = 0
It'd be easier to do #18 if y ou were to break it up:
14* (first term + 14th term)
Sum from n=1 to 14 of n = S = ---------------------------------
14 2
14(1+14)
= ---------------- = 7(15) = 105
2
The sum of twice that is 210. The sum of "1 from n=1 to n=14" is just 14.
The final sum is 210 + 14 = 224 (answer)
This equation basically says that a number plus 3/5 equals 2 so we can simply:
2 - 3/5 = x
Therefore x equals 1 & 2/5 or 1.4
