A. The area of a square is given as:

A = s^2

Where s is a measure of a side of a square. s = (2 x – 5) therefore,

A = (2 x – 5)^2                  

Expanding,

A = 4 x^2 – 20 x + 25

 

B. The degree of a polynomial is the highest exponent of the variable x, in this case 2. Therefore the expression obtained in part A is of 2nd degree.

Furthermore, polynomials are classified according to the number of terms in the expression. There are 3 terms in the expression therefore it is classified as a trinomial.

 

<span>C. The closure property demonstrates that during multiplication or division, the coefficients and power of the variables are affected while during multiplication or division, only the coefficients are affected while the power remain the same.</span>

Equation for the line perpendicular to the line -6x-7y=-6 having the same y-intercept as 8x-5y=10
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
Solving   <span>8x-5y=10   for y helps us to identify the y-intercept:

-5y = -8x + 10.  Dividing both sides by -5, we get (8/5)x -2.  Therefore, y = (8/5)x - 2; the y-intercept is (0,-2).

The equation  </span><span>-6x-7y=-6   can be solved for its slope in the same manner.
7y = -6x + 6;  then y = (-6/7)x + 6/7.  Its slope is -7/6.  A line perpendicular to this line has slope equal to the negative reciprocal of -7/6,  which is 6/7.

So, using the slope-intercept form, y = mx + b becomes y = (6/7)x -2.</span>

The sides of an isosceles triangle are 8, 8, and 3. The measure of the vertex angle to the nearest degree is _____°. 44 17 31 22
Doss [256]
We may draw a vertical that bisects the vertex angle and the shorter side of the triangle, to form a right-triangle with the measurements:
hypotenuse = 8
length = 1.5

We may then apply:
sin(∅) = P / H
sin(∅) = 1.5 / 8
∅ = 10.8 ≈ 11°

This is half of the vertex angle, so the vertex angle is:
11 * 2 = 22°

If the start time is 8:34 amd the elapsed timne is 3 hours and 18 minutes what is the end time
mr_godi [17]
Forget the '34' part of 8:34 and the '18' minutes from 3 hours and 18 minutes for now.

Just add 3 hours on to 8, to get 11. Then, bring back the 34 and 18 and add them together. 34 + 12 = 52. Now put that 52 on the end of the 11, and you get 11:52 as the end time.
