Which shows 422 − 382 being evaluated using the difference of perfect squares method?

422 − 382 = (1,764 − 1,444)(1,764 + 1,444) = 1,026,560

422 − 382 = 84 − 76 = 8

422 − 382 = (42 − 38)2 = (4)2 = 16

422 − 382 = (42 + 38)(42 − 38) = (80)(4) = 320

Option D

422 − 382 = (42 + 38)(42 − 38) = (80)(4) = 320

Step-by-step explanation:

 Let us consider the following:-

 (a + b)(a - b)

  a^2 - ab + ab - b^2

  Since -ab+ab = 0

 Then what will be left is:

      a^2 - b^2

  This is a proof that:

  (a + b)(a - b) is the same as a^2 - b^2

 Let's use actual figures to show this:-

   (5 + 3)(5 - 3)

    25 - 15 + 15 - 9

  - 15+15 is the same as + 15 - 15 = 0

  We will then be left with:

      25 - 9 = 16

   The fact is that we can achieve this same result from the product of their sum and difference.

 Since 5 + 3 = 8 and 5 - 3 = 2

  Then:  (8)(2) = 16

 Now, back to the question:

42^2 - 38^2 can be evaluated using the difference of perfect square method which is simply finding their sum and their difference and then multiplying the two results:

422 − 382 = (42 + 38)(42 − 38)

  42 + 38 = 80

  42 - 38 = 4

 (80)(4) = 320

for finding the midpoint of any given 2 pair of points simply add the respective x coordinates with other x coordinate and the y coordinate with other y coordinate and divide them by 2

in your question it will be :

(3+1)/2 for the x coordinate of mid point i.e 2

[8+(-4)]/2 for the y coordinate of midpoint i.e 2

so coordinates of mid point of points (3,8) and (1,-4) will be (2,2)

x+14
