The correct answer is: " √x − <span>2√b " .
</span>_________________________________________________________
The "conjugate" of " √x + 2√b " is: " √x − 2√b " .
_________________________________________________________
Explanation:
_________________________________________________________
In an expression with 2 (TWO) terms; that is, in a "binomial expression",
the "conjugate" of that expression refers to that very expression — with the "sign" in between those two terms—"reverse" (e.g. "minus" becomes "plus" ; or, "plus" becomes "minus" .) .
_________________________________________________________
→ So: We are given: " <span>√x + 2√b " .
</span>
→ Note that this is a "binomial expression" ;
→ that is, there are 2 (TWO) terms: " <span>√x " ; and: " 2√b " .
_________________________________________________________
To find the "conjugate" of the given binomial expression:
</span>→ " <span>√x + 2√b " ;
</span>→ We simply change the "+" {plus sign} to a "<span>−" {minus sign} ; and rewrite:
___________________________________________________________
</span>→ " √x − 2√b " ;
→ which is the "conjugate" ; and is the correct answer:
___________________________________________________________
→ " √x − 2√b " ; is the "conjugate" of the expression: " <span>√x + 2√b " .
___________________________________________________________
</span>→ {that is: " √x − 2√b " ; is the conjugate.}.

Answer:
8/9 of the course are males.
Angle a = 60
given that all angles of a triangle added together must equal 180
x = -20
-20+80=60
do it again for the other angle measurement
60+60+40=180
therefore, angle A is 60°
Answer: AB = 12.5, BC = 15
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Perimeter of ΔBCD = BC + CD + BD. Since it is an isoceles triangle, then BC = CD = BD. So, Perimeter of ΔBCD = 3BC
3BC = 45
<u>÷3 </u> <u>÷3 </u>
BC = 15
Perimeter of ΔABC = AB + BC + AC. Since it is an isosceles triangle with BC as the base, then AB = AC. So, Perimeter of ΔABC = 2AB + BC
2AB + BC = 40
2AB + 15 = 40
<u> -15</u> <u> -15 </u>
2AB = 25
<u>÷2 </u> <u>÷2 </u>
AB = 12.5
