A small country emits 103,000 kilotons of carbon dioxide per year. In a recent global agreement, the country agreed to cut its carbon emissions by 5% per year for the next 14 years. In the first year of the agreement, the country will keep its emissions at 103,000 kilotons and the emissions will decrease 5% in each successive year. How many kilotons of carbon dioxide would the country emit over the course of the 14 year period, ?

the entire expression should be subtracted from 30. to subtract the quantity, distribute the negative sign, which changes the signs on the terms. so, the –2 changes to positive and gets added to 30 instead of subtracted from it.

hope this ! ^w^

\3. yes the presentation (i.e. odd numbers being written as differences of two squares) is possible for all odd natural number however the presentation may not be unique. for example,  57=112−82=292−28257=112−82=292−282.

\4. 2 can't be written as a difference of two squares because 4-1=3 and 1-1=0 and the difference of squares grows to integers larger that 3.

can i get some in proving questions 1 and 2?
