Factor out the common term; 3
(3(x + 1))^2 = 36
Use the Multiplication Distributive Property; (xy)^a = x^ay^a
3^2(x + 1)^2 = 36
Simplify 3^2 to 9
9(x + 1)^2 = 36
Divide both sides by 9
(x + 1)^2 = 36/9
Simplify 36/9 to 4
(x + 1)^2 = 4
Take the square root of both sides
x + 1 = √4
Since 2 * 2 = 4, the square root of 2 is 2
x + 1 = 2
Break down the problem into these 2 equations
x + 1 = 2
x + 1 = -2
Solve the first equation; x + 1 = 2
x = 1
Solve the second equation; x + 1 = -2
x = -3
Collect all solutions;
<u>x = 1, -3</u>

For this case we must construct a system of two equations with two variables. Let "h" be the number of hardcover version books, and let "p" be the number of paperback version books. If the hardcover version of a book weighs 7 ounces and the paperback version weighs 5 ounces, to reach a total of 249 ounces we have:
(1)
On the other hand, if there are Forty-five copies of the book then:
(2)
If from (2) we clear the number of books paperback version we have:
As each paperback version book weighs 5 ounces, to obtain the total weight of the paperback version books, represented by "x" in the table shown, we multiply
So, 
Answer:
Option D
Answer:
Graph 4
Step-by-step explanation:
It crosses at 1 (y-intercept) and has a slope of 1/2
Answer:
C. There are the same number of scores in Section and Section
Step-by-step explanation:
The median of section I is greater than the median of section L. Median is the middle value or midpoint in the data set. In the given quiz the data set has different numbers for every section and therefore the values are not same. The data set has 75% of scores in section il which is higher than the section L.
One-sixth of an hour is 10 minute
10 minutes 3/4 chapter
Therefore, 10 minutes x 6= 3/4x6
Shawn can read 4.5 chapters in one hour
