Answer:
1:4
Step-by-step explanation:
A ratio can be written like this: 15:60, but it can also be written as the fraction 15/60, which can be simplified to 1/4, or 1:4.
Actually, the real answer is "NO, BECAUSE GROUP B SHOULD BE THE CONTROL GROUP". Since Yvonne gave the flea medication to the group A, and we need a control group. If you don't know what it's the control group, it's the group that they don't put the experiment on, just to see if the group(s) being experimented, had any positive or negative changes. In a short summary they need group B to stay like they are to compare it to the experimented group (group A)
Good Luck!
This may not be very pretty.
(2x + 5) * (2x + 5) expanded is (use foil)
F = 4x^2
O = 2x * 5 = 10x
I = 2x + 5 = 10x
L = 25
Total = 4x^2 + 20x + 25
(x + 3)(x + 3) = x^2 + 6x + 9 by the same method
(2x + 7)(2x + 7) = 4x^2 + 28x + 49 Same method.
4x^2 + 20x + 25 + x^2 + 6x + 9 = 4x^2 + 28x + 49
5x^2 + 26x + 34 = 4x^2 + 28x + 49 Collect everything on the left.
x^2 - 2x - 15 = 0
(x - 5)(x + 3) = 0
x + 3 will have no meaning.
x - 5 = 0
x = 5
2x + 5 = 2*5 + 5 = 15
x + 3 = 5 + 3 = 8
2x+ 7 = 2*5 +7 = 17
Check
15^2 + 8^2 = 17^2
225 + 64 = ? 289
289 = 289
a = 15 <<<<< answer
b = 8 <<<<< answer
c = 17 <<<<< answer
