Answer:
Part A:
x+y= 95
x = y+25
Part B : 35 minutes
Part C : No
Step-by-step explanation:
Eric plays basketball and volleyball for a total of 95 minutes every day
x+y= 95
Where:
x =the number of minutes Eric plays basketball
y= the number of minutes he plays volleyball
He plays basketball for 25 minutes longer than he plays volleyball.
x = y+25
System:
x+y= 95
x = y+25
Replacing x=y+25 on the first equation:
(y+25) + y =95
Solving for Y
y+25+y =95
25+2y=95
2y=95-25
2y=70
y = 70/2
y = 35 minutes
Part C : No
if x = 35
x+y= 95
35+y =95
y= 95-35
y = 60 minutes
Replacing y=60 on the other equation:
x = y+25
35 = 60+25
35 ≠85
Step-by-step explanation:
because we can also find out the value of x in second equation like this
3x=21
x=21/3
x=7

Answer:
x² + 10x + 25
Explanation:
Before we begin, remember the following:
(a + b)(a + b) = (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²
Now, for the given we have:
(x + 5)(x + 5)
We can note that the two brackets are identical.
Therefore, we can apply the above rule as follows:
(x + 5)(x + 5) = (x + 5)²
= (x)² + 2(x)(5) + (5)²
= x² + 10x + 25
Hope this helps :)
