The diagonals of a trapezoid are equal sometimes,
and they're unequal sometimes.
The diagonals are equal only in an "Isosceles trapezoid" . . .
where the non-parallel sides have equal lengths.
x + 7/8 = 4
subtract 7/8 from each side
x = 4 - 7/8
borrow from the 4
x =3 8/8 - 7/8
x = 3 1/8
Choice C
Y= 3( x -2 )² - ( x-5 )² = 3 ( x² - 4 x + 4 ) - ( x² - 10 x + 25 ) =
= 3 x² - 12 x + 12 - x² + 10 x - 25=
= 2 x² - 2 x - 13 =
= 2 ( x² - x + 1/4 - 1/4 ) - 13 =
= 2 ( x - 1/2 )² - 1/2 - 26/2 = 2 ( x - 1/2 )² - 27/2
Answer: D)
Answer: The correct answer is B.
Step-by-step explanation: To simplify a square root, you take the factors of the value in the square root and see the greatest factor that is a square. In this case, 49 is the greatest square factor of 98. You take the square root of 49, which is 7. 7 goes outside the radicand. Leave 2 inside the radical because 49 x 2 = 98. Hence, the correct answer is B.
