Sonny substituted 5 for x in the proportion 16/x =48/12 and cross multiplied to get 240 = 240. Why is this?

1 answer:

4 0

16 / 5 = 48 / 12

16 * 12 = 5 * 48
192 = 240

which is incorrect so 5 cannot be the solution of the equation.

substituting 4 for x will give you 192=192

What is the completely factored from of 9x2+24x+16

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

(3x+4)(3x+4) is factor of given expression.

B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given an expression $9x^2+24x+16$

Formula: $a^2+2ab+b^2=(a+b)^2$

First we write each term as perfect square as formula.

$\Rightarrow 9x^2+24x+16$

$\Rightarrow (3x)^2+2\cdot 3x\cdot 4+4^2$

Using formula , a=3x and b=4

$\therefore (3x)^2+2\cdot 3x\cdot 4+4^2=(3x+4)^2$

Now we write same number two times.

Hence, (3x+4)(3x+4) is factor of given expression.
