Question: 4
Page: 149 - 150
Explanation
Quantity A: average of x and y
Quantity B: z²
Quantity A: [(z-1)² + (z+1)²]/2
Quantity B: z²
Quantity A: [(z² - 2z + 1) + (z² + 2z + 1)]/2
Quantity B: z²
Quantity A: [2z² + 2]/2
Quantity B: z²
Quantity A: z² + 1
Quantity B: z²
Subtract z² from both quantities to get:
Quantity A: 1
Quantity B: 0
