Answer:
I believe that A is the correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A. 4x²+20x+25
Step-by-step explanation:
Because of PEMDAS, you calculate the value inside of the parenthesis first, so you expand [2x+1-(4x+6)]:
2x+1-4x-6 = -2x-5.
Then apply the exponent:
(-2x-5)² = (-2x-5)(-2x-5) = 4x²+10x+10x+25 = 4x²+20x+25
The answer depends on the way you solved it.
I am assuming you take the base on which you perceived to be: . 5 and height which is 2.
So you must've ended with 1
But in actuality, you need to use the equation above and plug in 1.5 and 1
Subtract them and you should get 1.25
Do the same to the other side, you should get 6.
.125 x 6 = .875
Simplify it to 16a hope im right & hope this helps you .
