Answer:
r=-7
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is <span>c. 16x2 + 24xy + 9y2.
Since we need trinomial (three term expression) choices a and b are incorrect because they have only two terms.
So, our square trinomial is a</span>² + 2ab + b² or a² - 2ab + b²
a² + 2ab + b² = (a + b)²
a² - 2ab + b² = (a - b)²
Let's check choices c and d:
c) 16x² + 24xy + 9y²
a² = 16x²
a² = (4x)²
a = 4x
b² = 9y²
b² = (3y)²
b = 3y
a² + 2ab + b² = (4x)² + 2 * 4x * 3y + (3y)² = 16x² + 24xy + 9y²
CORRECT
d) 49x² - 70xy + 10y²
a² = 49x²
a² = (7x)²
a = 7x
b² = 10y²
b² = (y√10)²
b = y√10
a² + 2ab + b² = (7x)² + 2 * 7x * y√10 + (y√10)² = 49x² + 14xy√10 + 10y²
INCORRECT
So, c) is correct answer
Answer:
5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of the kitchen clock sold =a
Let the number of the cuckoo clock sold =b
Let the number of the two-foot high grandfather clocks sold =c
The new saleswoman sold at least two of each of the three models.
Therefore:

In all, she collected $300 from selling these models alone
17a+31b+61c=300
17(2)+31(2)+61(2)=218
300-218=82
Next, we try to express the remainder (82) in terms of 17, 31 and 61
82=17(3)+31
Therefore, she sold:
- 5 kitchen clocks
- 3 cuckoo clocks
- 2 two-foot high grandfather clocks
She sold 5 $17 clocks.
CHECK:
17(5)+31(3)+2(61)=$300
Answer:
79 because x = 7 so 12 x7 - 5 =79
