(11−3)(11+3)

Answer 1

To use the difference of two squares identity, we can rewrite \( 13 \times 19 \) as follows:

First, we note that: \[ 13 \times 19 = (16 - 3)(16 + 3) \]

This is because if we let \( a = 16 \) and \( b = 3 \), we can recognize that \( (16 - 3)(16 + 3) = a^2 - b^2 \) using the difference of squares identity, which gives us: \[ 16^2 - 3^2 = 256 - 9 = 247 \] We check that \( 13 \times 19 = 247 \).

Thus, the correct response for rewriting \( 13 \times 19 \) using the difference of two squares identity is:

\[ (16 - 3)(16 + 3) \]

So the answer is: \[ \text{(16−3)(16+3)} \]
