Given the polynomial expression:
(y + 5)²
(y - 5)(y + 5)
Let's simplify each of the given expression:
a.) (y + 5)²
The given equation is a factor of a perfect square trinomial. For this type of expression, the following is the formula for expanding it.

We get,


b.) (y - 5)(y + 5)
To be able to simplify the following expression. We will be using the formula for the difference of two squares.

We get,

4 x’s for 1/4
2 x’s for 2/4
1 x for 3/4
2 x’s for 1
Answer:
2.5 or 5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
2x-3=2
2x=5 (both sides plus 3)
x=5/2 or 2.5(divid by 2 on both sides)
Answer:
the numbers next to a variable is a coefficient, for instance in 2x 2 would be the coefficient.
the constants are the numbers without variables next to them, just numbers
like terms are the term that are similar like 2x and 8x or even 5 and 3
lm not exactly sure what they mean when asking for constant terms.
