Which products result in a difference of squares? check all that apply. (5z + 3)(–5z – 3) (w – 2.5)(w + 2.5) (8g + 1)(8g + 1) (–4v – 9)(–4v + 9) (6y + 7)(7y – 6) (p – 5)(p – 5)

(w - 2.5)(w + 2.5)

(-4v - 9)(-4v + 9)

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain what is the a difference of two squares

- If we multiply two binomial and the answer just two terms with

 negative sign between them and the two terms are square numbers

 we called this answer a difference of two squares

- Examples

# (a + b)(a - b)

- Lets multiply them

∵ (a × a) + (a × -b) + (b × a) + (b × -b)

∴ a² - ab + ba - b²

- Add the like term

∵ ab = ba

∴ -ab + ba = 0

∴ (a + b)(a - b) = a² - b² ⇒ difference of two squares

- From above the difference of two squares appears when we

 multiply sum and difference of the same two terms

# (a + b) ⇒ is the sum of a and b

# (a - b) ⇒ is the difference of a and b

* Now lets solve the problem

- In (5z + 3)(-5z - 3)

∵ (5z + 3) ⇒ is the sum of 5z and 3

∵ (-5z - 3) ⇒ is the difference of -5z and 3

∵ 5z ≠ - 5z

∴ They are not the sum and difference of the same two terms

∴ The product result not in a difference of squares

- In (w - 2.5)(w + 2.5)

∵ (w - 2.5) is the difference between w and 2.5

∴ (w + 2.5) is the sum of w and 2.5

∴ They are the sum and difference of the same two terms

∴ The product result in a difference of squares

- In (8g + 1)(8g + 1)

∵ The two brackets are the sum of 8g and 1

∴ They are not the sum and difference of the same two terms

∴ The product result not in a difference of squares

- In (-4v - 9)(-4v + 9)

∵ (-4v - 9) is the difference between -4v and 9

∵ (-4v + 9) is the sum of -4v and 9

∴ They are the sum and difference of the same two terms

∴ The product result in a difference of squares

- In (6y + 7)(7y - 6)

∵ (6y + 7) is the sum of 6y and 7

∵ (7y - 6) is the difference between 7y and 6

∵ 6y ≠ 7y and 7 ≠ 6

∴ They are not the sum and difference of the same two terms

∴ The product result not in a difference of squares

- In (p - 5)(p - 5)

∵ The two brackets are the difference of p and 5

∴ They are not the sum and difference of the same two terms

∴ The product result not in a difference of squares

answer:

sometimes

*i think

the largest number of the four options is 1.8 x 10-2

you have it in scientific notation.

1.80 x 10-6   = 0.00000180

1.80 x 10-4   = 0.000180 (bigger, or "less small", than the former one)

so

1.8 x 10-2       = 0.0180. as you see. the "less small", or the biggest one of them all.

as you have negative exponent, it means you are dividing 1.8 by 100 (i.e. moving the dot towards left, two times).

if you had positive exponent for the scientific notation, power of tenths, you would be multiplying times 100 (moving the dot towards right) as below:

1.8 x (10)2 = 180

so. if you have negative exponent in scientific notation, move the dot toward left. if it is positive, toward right as many times the exponent tells you.
