The point (12,-8) has the x coordinate of x = 12
Going from x = 3 to x = 12 is a distance of 9 since 12-3 = 9

Therefore this square has a side length of 9 units
There are 4 of these congruent (same length) sides, so 4*9 = 36 is the perimeter

Answer: B) 36
Note: you can use the y coordinate if you want. The distance from y = 1 to y = -8 is also 9 units because 1-(-8) = 1+8 = 9

What is the factorization of the trinomial below?<br> -x2+ x + 42
Greeley [361]

Answer:

-(x + 6)(x - 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression that we have can also be expressed in the following way:

- (x ^ 2 - x - 42)

Now to factorize we must find two numbers that multiplied by -42 and the sum of these numbers by -1.

these numbers are: -7 and 6

-7 * 6 = -42

-7 + 6 = -1

Thus:

- (x + 6) (x - 7)

What number must be added to the expression below to complete the square? x^2+x. a.1/4 b.1/2 c.2 d.1
torisob [31]

Option a. 1/4 is the right answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is:

x^2+x

Here

we know that

a = x

In order to find the number which should be added

comparing with the formula

(a+b)^2 = a^2+2ab+b^2

2ab = x\\2.x.b = x\\b=\frac{x}{2x}\\b = \frac{1}{2}

So, we will add the square of 1/2 which is 1/4

Hence,

Option a. 1/4 is the right answer
