Algebra tiles would not be a good tool to use to factor the trinomial because you would need to drag an x-squared tile, 18 x-tiles, and 80 plus tiles. That is a total of 99 tiles. It would take a lot of time to drag that many tiles on the board and there might not be enough space to hold all of them. You would also need to determine how to arrange all those tiles to make a rectangle. Since 80 is a multiple of 10, you might recognize that 10 and 8 are the factors that add to 18, which would give you the values to use in the X method.

Answer:
x = 550 ÷ 33
what are the answer choises
Step-by-step explanation:
So we know that the formula for the area of a rectangle is

.
Now both the length and width of the rectangle increase at 3 km/s, therefore,
![A(t) = (3t+l)*(3t+w). Since the initial length = initial width = 4 km, then the initial area = 16 [tex]km^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A%28t%29%20%3D%20%283t%2Bl%29%2A%283t%2Bw%29.%20Since%20the%20initial%20length%20%3D%20initial%20width%20%3D%204%20km%2C%20then%20the%20initial%20area%20%3D%2016%20%5Btex%5Dkm%5E2)
. We want to know the time when the area is four times its original area, therefore, our new formula is:

. Plugging in our known
values we have:
![64 [km^2] = (3t + 4 [km])*(3t + 4 [km])](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=64%20%5Bkm%5E2%5D%20%3D%20%283t%20%2B%204%20%5Bkm%5D%29%2A%283t%20%2B%204%20%5Bkm%5D%29)

The area is four times its original area after <span>\frac{4}{3} s[/tex]</span>.
