\n" ); document.write( "I'm assuming you mean the difference of their squares.
\n" ); document.write( "2.\"A%5E2-B%5E2=80\"
\n" ); document.write( "From eq. 1,
\n" ); document.write( "\"A=20-B\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"A%5E2=400-40B%2BB%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "Substitute into eq. 2,
\n" ); document.write( "\"400-40B%2BB%5E2-B%5E2=80\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"400-40B=80\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"40B=320\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28B=8%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Then from eq. 1,
