Answer:
Volume
Step-by-step explanation:
This would be volume as gallons is the measurement of how much liquid there is in a container.
This would be volume.
All of them are wrong except for the third one
Y = 7x + 2 because when you simlify the second equation to get y by itself, 4 turns into a 2
<O = 16 degrees vertical angles are equal
<O + 4x+90 = 180 DC is a straight line
16 +4x +90 = 180
106 +4x = 180
4x =74
x =18.5
16 +90 +2y= 180 DC is a straight line
106+2y=180
2y = 74
y= 37
Answer : y=37
x=18.5

Answer: D) Add 64 to both sides</h3>
Why do this?
Because we want to be able to factor the left hand side into the form p^2, where p is some algebraic expression. This will help us ultimately solve for x.
Currently, the left hand side is x^2+16x which does factor to x(x+16), but that isn't in the form p^2. We want something like (x+1)^2 or (x+2)^2. The general form is (x+k)^2 where k is some fixed constant.
Let's expand out (x+k)^2 using the FOIL rule and we get x^2+2kx+k^2
The x coefficient is 2k. If we cut that in half, we get k. Squaring that result leads to k^2.
So we have this order: 2k cuts in half to k then square it to get k^2
For x^2+16x, we have the x coefficient as 16. That cuts in half to 8, then that squares to 64. We add 64 to both sides
Note how
x^2+16x = 9
x^2 + 16x + 64 = 9+64
(x+8)^2 = 73
From here, we apply the square root to both sides and then subtract 8 from both sides to fully isolate x. You would get two different solutions.
-------------
I recommend you use the FOIL rule to confirm that (x+8)^2 expands out to x^2+16x+64, to help check your work.
