Factor out the common term; 3
(3(x + 1))^2 = 36
Use the Multiplication Distributive Property; (xy)^a = x^ay^a
3^2(x + 1)^2 = 36
Simplify 3^2 to 9
9(x + 1)^2 = 36
Divide both sides by 9
(x + 1)^2 = 36/9
Simplify 36/9 to 4
(x + 1)^2 = 4
Take the square root of both sides
x + 1 = √4
Since 2 * 2 = 4, the square root of 2 is 2
x + 1 = 2
Break down the problem into these 2 equations
x + 1 = 2
x + 1 = -2
Solve the first equation; x + 1 = 2
x = 1
Solve the second equation; x + 1 = -2
x = -3
Collect all solutions;
<u>x = 1, -3</u>

Answer:
A= 4
B= 4
C= -1
D= 4
E= -1
F= 4
G= -1
Step-by-step explanation:
The expected value equation is the probability of something happening multiplied by the amount of times it happens. In this case you have four equal sized sections, so you have a one in four chance to land in any of these sections. A, B, D, and F represent the four for this one in four chance. C, E, and G represent the amount of points you get when you land on those sections, in this case -1
