Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

The step that was wrong is at C: when Jennifer added the 1 into the parentheses, she forgot to subtract 1 from the 7. The reason she needs to do that is because now, if you compare her equation at C with her original, they're not the same:

Original: x^2 + 2x + 7

Step C: x^2 + 2x + 8

So, Jennifer actually needs to subtract 1 from the 7 if she wants to add 1 into the parenthetical expression:

Correct Step C: (x^2 + 2x + 1) + 7 - 1 = (x^2 + 2x + 1) + 6

Now, the correct vertex form is: (x + 1)^2 + 6

Hope this helps!

Le help needed with like terms and distributive property
Rashid [163]
Like terms would be taking all of the ones with a and getting them alone, all of the ones with b alone, and all plain numbers alone to simplify

1) 2a+3-5a+8b
****= -3a+8b+3****
take 2a-5a and that is your answer

2) 6a+rs-4a+6rs
=2a+rs+6rs
combine the a's 6a-4a
****=2a+7rs****
1rs+6rs combine rs's and that's it :)

**** is the answers

Noah has drawn two triangle △MNO and △M'N'O' on the coordinate plane as shown below. (the image I pasted)
Ber [7]

Answer:

  choice C is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The clockwise sequence of vertices MNO is the opposite of the counterclockwise sequence of vertices M'N'O', so it seems some sort of reflection is involved.

Length NO is 3 times length N'O', but length NM is only 7/3 times length N'M', so the figures are <em>not similar</em>. (The ratios of side lengths must be the same for the figures to be similar.)

___

Choice D includes only rigid transformations that would ensure congruence. Similar figures may also differ by a dilation factor, so C is the better choice.
