(4x+5)(4x-5) is equal to 16x^2+20x-20x-25
The positive and negative 20x cancel out
Leaving you with: 16x^2 - 25
[S/N this is a pattern that shows up a decent amount. Whenever you have something that looks like (x^2-y^2) it factors out to (x+y)(x-y). It might be helpful to remember]
The next one, (4x+5)2, just follows the distributive property. Multiply both components within the parentheses bye the coefficient of 2: 8x+10

Answer:
2/5 hour is closest to 0 1/2 hours, 5/8 hour is closest to 1/2 hour. Therefore, the best estimate for the total time Maria spent with her sister is close to 1 hour
Step-by-step explanation:
We can represent the time Maria spends playing the game as 0.4, since 2/5 as a fraction is 0.4. This is closer to 1/2, which is 0.5 then it is to 0, because 4 is closer to 5 then 0. Then, we can represent the time Maria reads the book as 0.625, which is closer to 1/2 then it is to 1. Now we can add the estimated times.

Answer:
(d) 36 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Use your sense of geometry.
The hypotenuse of a right triangle will never be less than the longest side, and will never be greater than 1.5 times the longest side*.
That means the only reasonable answer choices will be between 30 and 45 feet. There is only one such choice.
The measure is about 36 feet.
__
If you like, you can find a more exact value using the Pythagorean theorem. The distance d of interest is ...
d^2 = 20^2 +30^2 = 1300
d = √1300 = 10√13 ≈ 36.0555 ≈ 36 . . . feet
_____
* The longest hypotenuse will be √2 ≈ 1.4142 times the longest right triangle leg when the two legs are equal length.
