  1. A²-b² is difference

    A. t²-1², yep
    B. nope, not difference
    C. n²-15²,yep
    D. we can force it but I wouldn''t pick this one

    A and C

  2. Step-by-step explanation:

    [tex]Which expressions are differences of squares? select each correct answer. h2−20 t2−4 x2−169 a2+1[/tex]

  3. The correct options are 3 and 4.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The difference of squares is defined as

    [tex]a^2-b^2[/tex]

    In option 1,

    [tex]k^2+81[/tex]

    It can be written as

    [tex]k^2+9^2[/tex]

    It is the sum of squares, therefore the option 1 is incorrect.

    In option 2,

    [tex]P^2-40[/tex]

    The number 40 is not a complete square of any number, therefore option 2 is incorrect.

    In option 3,

    [tex]n^2-225[/tex]

    It can be rewritten as

    [tex]n^2-(15)^2[/tex]

    It is the difference of squares, therefore option 3 is correct.

    In option 4,

    [tex]t^2-1[/tex]

    It can be rewritten as

    [tex]t^2-1^2[/tex]

    It is the difference of squares, therefore option 4 is correct.

  4. Step-by-step explanation:

    [tex]Which expressions are differences of squares? select each correct answer. h2−20 t2−4 x2−169 a2+1[/tex]

  5. 1. the perfect squares in this case are
    a²+26a+169 = (a+13)²
    a²+14a+49 = (a+7)²

    2. factorising 
    4p²+36p+81
     product = 324
          sum = 36
    numbers are 18 and 18
    Thus , 4p²+18p+18p+81
              2p(2p+9) +9p(2p+9)
    thus, (2p+9p)(2p+9p)

    3. Factor 81a36-64b16
    this is the difference between two squares, such that;
    a²-b² = (a+b)(a-b)
    therefore, 81a36 -64b16 will be;
    (9a18-8b8)(9a18+8b8)

    4.  The differences between two squares is such that;
    a²-b² = (a+b)(a-b)
    therefore in this case, the difference between two squares will be;
    x²-169 = (a-13)(a+13), and
    t²-4     = (t-4)(t+4)

  6. Option B, C and D are correct.

    [tex]a^2-36[/tex], [tex]w^2-121[/tex] and [tex]n^2-50[/tex]

    Step-by-step explanation:

    For any real number a and b:

    Difference of square is given by:

    [tex]a^2-b^2 = (a-b)(a+b)[/tex]

    We have to find Which expressions are differences of squares.

    Option A :

    [tex]x^2+25[/tex]

    ⇒[tex]x^2+5^2[/tex]

    This cannot be written as a difference of square.

    Option B:

    [tex]a^2-36[/tex]

    ⇒[tex]a^2-6^2[/tex]

    ⇒[tex](a-6)(a+6)[/tex]

    Option C:

    [tex]w^2-121[/tex]

    ⇒[tex]w^2-11^2[/tex]

    ⇒[tex](w-11)(w+11)[/tex]

    Option D:

    [tex]n^2-50[/tex]

    ⇒[tex]n^2-(\sqrt{50})^2[/tex]

    ⇒[tex](n-\sqrt{50})(n+\sqrt{50})[/tex]

    Therefore, the expressions which are are differences of squares are:

    [tex]a^2-36[/tex], [tex]w^2-121[/tex] and [tex]n^2-50[/tex]

  7. Step-by-step explanation:

    1. the perfect squares in this case are

    a²+26a+169 = (a+13)²

    a²+14a+49 = (a+7)²

    First and fourth option are correct.

    2. factorise  4p²+36p+81

    Product = 324 and sum = 36

    numbers are 18 and 18

    ∴  4p²+18p+18p+81

    ⇒ 2p(2p+9) +9(2p+9)

    ⇒ (2p+9)(2p+9) ⇒ [tex](2p+9)^2[/tex]

    3. Factor [tex]81a^36-64b^16[/tex]

    As [tex]a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)[/tex]

    ∴  [tex]81a^36-64b^16=(9a^18)^2-(8b^8)^2[/tex]

                                       =[tex](9a^18-8b^8)(9a^18+8b^8)[/tex]  (Option B)

    4.  The differences between two squares is such that;

    a²-b² = (a+b)(a-b)

    [tex]x^2-169=x^2-13^2=(a-13)(a+13)[/tex], and

    [tex]t^2-4=t^2-2^2=(t-2)(t+2)[/tex]

    First and third option correct.

  8. A and C are correct because they can be factorized to get (a+6)(a-6) and (w+11)(w-11) while B and D can't be factorized to get those
