$A=(cx+d)^2=c^2x^2+2cdx+d^2\\\\c^2x^2+2xcd+d^2=16x^2+40x+25\\\Downarrow\\c^2=16;\ 2cd=40;\ d^2=25\\\Downarrow\\c=\sqrt{16};\ cd=20;\ d=\sqrt{25}\\\Downarrow\\\boxed{c=4\ and\ d=5}\\\\The\ length\ of\ side:cx+d=\boxed{4x+5}\\\\The\ perimeter\ of\ the\ piece\ of\ fabric:4(4x+5)=\boxed{16x+20}\\\\For\ x=2:\\16\cdot2+20=32+20=\boxed{52}$

1: Explain Why (4,1) is not a solution to the equation y=3x+1

guapka [62]

1. (4,1) is not a solution because when u sub it into the equation, it does not come out correct. It would be correct if it was (1,4).

2. C = 2.50d.....where C is the cost and d is the number of drinks bought. And if u pick any number for d, then u can solve for the cost (C).

Simplify 2x^2+6x-7x+8-3x^2+1

$(((((2*(x^2))+6x)-7x)+8)-3x^2)+1 \\ \\ ((((2x^2 + 6x) - 7x) + 8) - 3x^2) + 1 \\ \\ we \ would \ then \ (pull \ out) \ like \ terms. \\ \\ -x^2 - x + 9 = -1 * (x^2 + x - 9) \\ \\ \left[\begin{array}{ccc} -9 + 1 = -8 \\
 -3 + 3 = 0 \\
 -1 + 9 = 8 \\
\end{array}\right] \\ \\ Your \ answer: \boxed{\boxed{\bf{ -x^2 - x + 9
