Answer:
False
Step-by-step explanation:
the area (A) of a rectangle is calculated as
A = length × breadth
= (x + 5)(x - 5) ← expand factors using FOIL
= x² - 5x + 5x - 25
= x² - 25 ≠ x² - x - 15
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the 1st number
x + 9 be the second number
Equation:
x + x+9 = 171
Solution:
2x + 9 = 171
2x = 171 - 9
2x = 162
x = 81
x + 9 = 90
81 + 90 = 171
Answer: 36
Step-by-step explanation:
(Triangle ABC is isosceles)
(base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent)
(In triangle CMB, angles in a triangle add to 180 degrees)
(triangle sum theorem)
(30-60-90 triangle CMB)
(sides opposite congruent angles in a triangle are congruent)
(segment addition postulate)
