Question: What value of c will complete the square below (
) and make the expression a perfect square trinomial?
Answer: c = 225
Step-by-step explanation:
Perfect square trinomials come in the form a² + 2ab + b², which is equal to (a + b)². In the presented trinomial, we can immediately identify that <u>a = x, and b² = c</u>, but we need to find the numerical value of 
.
To do this, note that the middle term, or <u>2ab, corresponds with (is equal to) 30x</u>. We know that a = x, and thus, <u>2ab = 2bx</u>. Now, 2bx and 30x are corresponding terms; thus, <u>2bx = 30x</u>.
Dividing by 
on both sides gives us <u>b = 15</u>. Therefore, c = b² = 15² = 225. (As a squared binomial, this would be (x + 15)² as a = x and b = 15.)

Answer: The answer would be B
Step-by-step explanation:
I had a test like this so I kinda know wut the answer is a few weeks or so ago but u need to multiply -5 • 5 (which would be negative since it has one negative sign) then multiply -5 • -5 (since it has another negative it’s positive) then u just multiply the answers that u got from the times 5 u did -bonus if it’s 1 negatives it’s a negative but if it’s 2 negatives it’s a positive
