The expression (-4x + 9)^2 cannot be equal to (-4x)^2 + 9^2 because it is actually equal to the product of two factors (3 + 2sqrt x) (3- 2 sqrt x). One cannot use obviously distributive property. Hence the answer to this problem should be C. as she did not understand both perfect square trinomial and did not determine the product
I believe it is a! hope this helps :-)
C, 360 degrees. Hope it helps!
Answer:
x degrees = 50 degrees.
x + 50 degrees = 50 + 50 = 100 degrees
(180 - 3x) degrees = (180 - 3*50) = 30 degrees.
Step-by-step explanation:
In a triangle, the sum of all inside angles must be 180 degrees.
In this question:
The inside angles are: x, x + 50 and 180 - 3x.
Then
x + x + 50 + 180 - 3x = 180
2x - 3x = -50
x = 50
So
x degrees = 50 degrees.
x + 50 degrees = 50 + 50 = 100 degrees
(180 - 3x) degrees = (180 - 3*50) = 30 degrees.
Is there any more information?
