The answer is $60.50, if the 10% is coming from the $55
45 feet. 4 x 10 =40 then add the other half an inch to get the total of 45 feet or you could say 9 x 5= 45
The answer is B. (2x + 5)(x + 1)You could answer this by expanding each answer until you found one that matched 2x^2 + 7x + 5, but I will only show how the answer expands:
2x × x = 2x^2
5 × x = 5x
2x × 1 = 2x
5 × 1 = 5
So in total those brackets expand to 2x^2 + 7x + 5. I hope this helps!
