Answer:

  5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The two legs of Deborah's hike form the right-angle legs of a right triangle. The shortest distance is then the hypotenuse of that triangle, found using the Pythagorean theorem.

  d^2 = 3^2 + 4^2 = 9 +16 = 25

  d = √25 = 5

Deborah ends 5 miles from her start.

To factor first multily 100 and 1 and get 100

then find what 2 numbers multiply to get 100 and add to get 20

the numbers are 10 and 10

so
split the center term up
100x^2+10x+10x+1
group
(100x^2+10x)+(10x+1)
undistribute
(10x)(10x+1)+(1)(10x+1)
undistribute/reverse distributive property
(10x+1)(10x+1)
(10x+1)^2
