Answer:
The equation is not true.
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]157^2in-9^2in=48^2in[/tex]
To find if the equation is true, (if one side equals the other), first simplify by removing the inches:
[tex]157^2-9^2=48^2[/tex]
Now simplify the exponents:
[tex]24,649-81=2,304[/tex]
Simplify subtraction:
[tex]24,568\neq 2,304[/tex]
The statement is not true because 24,568 does not equal 2,304.
Finito.
