Answer: The answer is A

Step-by-step explanation: Add the coefficient of x to the both sides.

X²+4x=12

X²+4x+4=12+4

X²+4x+4=16

X²+2x+2x+4=16

X(x+2)+2(x+2)=16

(X+2)(x+2)=16

(X+2)²=16

What is -4-(-12)? I don't know if you add them or subtract.

You subtract negative 4 and negative 12...think in a number line and you find negative 4 and then you decrease( which means you move to your left of the number line) and find negative 12 and then you count the spaces you took to get to negative 12

Use the Associative Property of Addition to write an expression equivalent to (n + 2) + 7. Which expression is equivalent to (n

insens350 [35]

Answer:

The correct answer is OB.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us recall the Associative Property of Addition: given three real numbers $a$ , $b$ and $c$ the following equality holds:

$(a+b) + c = a+(b+c)$ .

Let us remark that the Associative Property of Addition tells us that we can perform the sums in any order. So,

$(n+2)+7 = n+(2+7)$ .

In the other options there was used the Commutative Property of Addition.
