9x^2-25<br> Yea, it confused me too I need this explained to me pls and thank you.<br>

Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

What this is is factoring and these are both perfect squares.

(3x-5)(3x+5) is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we take the 9x^2-25 and split in in two statements

(3x-5) (3x+5)

then foil to check it

first side: 3x*3x=9x^2

outside: 3x*5=15x

inside: -5*3x=-15x

last: -5*5=-25

then put it together

9x^2+15x-15x-25

the 15x and -15x cancel each other out so you're left with 9x^2-25

9. Kelly rode her bike 3 miles less than twice the number of miles Jon rode. Together

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Jon rode <u>17 miles</u> and Kelly rode <u>31 miles</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Kelly rode her bike 3 miles less than twice the number of miles Jon rode.

Together they rode 48 miles.

Now, to find the miles they each ride.

<em>Let the number of miles Jon rode be </em> $x.$ <em />

<em>So, the number of miles Kelly rode is</em> $2x-3.$

Together they rode = 48 miles.

Now, to get the miles they each rode:

According to question:

$x+(2x+3)=48$

$x+2x-3=48$

$3x-3=48$

<em>Adding both sides by 3 we get:</em>

$3x=51$

<em>Dividing both sides by 3 we get:</em>

$x=17.$

<em>Jon rode = 17 miles.</em>

So, to get the miles Kelly rode we substitute the value of $x$ :

<em>And Kelly rode = </em> $2x+3$ <em />

$=2\times 17-3$

$=34-3$

$=31\ miles.$

Therefore, Jon rode 17 miles and Kelly rode 31 miles.
