  • Question

  • Options
  • A. 2?2
  • B. 0
  • C. 2?3
  • D. ?5 - 1

  • Correct Answer


  • Explanation

    ?5 + 2?6 - 1/?5 - 2?6
    = ((?5 + 2?6 x ?5 - 2?6 ) - 1)/?5 - 2?6

    Apply the formula of Algebra.
    ( a + b ) x (a - b ) = a2 - b2

    = (?(5)2 - (2?6 )2 - 1)/?5 - 2?6
    = (?25 - 4 x 6 - 1) /?5 - 2?6
    = (?25 - 24 - 1) /?5 - 2?6
    = (? 1 - 1 )/?5 - 2?6
    = (1 - 1 )/?5 - 2?6
    = 0/?5 - 2?6
    = 0
