Answer:
The answer is 9996
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the identity (x+a)(x+b) = x ^2 +(a+b)x+ab
Writing 102 as 100+2 and 98 as 100−2
Hence (100+2)(100−2) = 100 ^2 +[2+(−2)]100+(2)(−2)
= 10000+(0)100−4
= 9996
The answer is 9996
Answer:
9996
Step-by-step explanation:
by using suitable identities ;
