Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Factor top and bottom.
The numerator is a difference of two squares, and the denominator is a quadratic.

If x does not equal -1 and does not equal 4, we can cancel the common factors in italics to give

The answer would be 18 because if you put 3a+6a+a=180 (the degrees of a triangle) and solve it a becomes 18
1.625 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 1.63
Answer:
I am pretty sure it is when you have a sequence of numbers that you are subtracting or adding from by the same constant over and over
Step-by-step explanation:
an=a1+(n-1)d
d=common difference
an= the nth term in the sequence
a1 first term in the sequence. (Usually you can plug in 1, as the n, and work from there)
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
the area of a triangle is
baseline × height / 2
so, we know in our case
b(b+12) = 189 cm²
b² + 12b - 189 = 0
let's try to solve this by completing the square.
that means we try to find the expression
(b + k)² + c
that is equal to
b² + 12b - 189
(b + k)² + c = b² + 2kb + k² + c = b² + 12b - 189
so,
2k = 12
k = 6
and then
k² + c = -189
6² + c = -189
36 + c = -189
c = -225
(b + 6)² - 225 = 0
(b + 6)² = 225
b + 6 = 15
b = 9
so, the baseline b = 9 cm.
the height b+12 = 9+12 = 21 cm.
