If and , then what is ?

Recall that

(x + y)² = x² + 2xy + y²

Then if x + y = √7 and x² + y² = 6, we have

(√7)² = 6 + 2xy   ⇒   2xy = 1

We also have

(x - y)² = x² - 2xy + y²

so that

(x - y)² = 6 - 1   ⇒   (x - y)² = 5

which means x - y has two possible values, √5 or -√5.

yes

step-by-step explanation:

the answer would be 1 1/72

step-by-step explanation:

you can rewrite the equation by separating the parts and then solving individually:

10-9=1

1/8 - 1/9=

find l c d and then combine:

1 1/72
