15x4y2 letter B is your answer
Each side of an equilateral triangle = perimeter / 3.
Each side = 10 inches.
The altitude divides the triangle into two 30 60 90 triangles. The hypotenuse is 10 inches and the short side is 5 inches.
altitude^2 = 10^2 - 5^2
altitude^2 = 100 - 25
altitude^2 = 75
altitude =

double bracket factorisation
2 × 15 = 30
find two factors of 30 that add to give -7
(-10, +3)
2x^2 -10x + 3x - 15
2x(x-5) + 3 (x-5)

Remark
This is an excellent question. Estimation is a powerful skill to have. People should always shop using estimates. Try it to see what happens.
x = 11.7 which rounds up to which we will call x1 and that is 12
y = 6.03 which round down to 6 which we will call y1 and that is 6
Now x - y = 5.67
If you do the rounded subtraction x1 - y1 = 12 - 6 = 6
The estimate is not zero. D is not correct.
There is enough information E is not the answer.
B is wrong, her estimate is larger than x - y
C is wrong the two subtractions are not equal.
A is correct and always will be no matter what numbers are chosen
A <<<< Answer
3 tens
that means the tens place is a 3
2nd degit is below 8 so can be 7,6,5,4,3,2,1,0
even, means it ends with 8,6,4,2,0
th enumber could be
30,32,34,36
