Answer:

D. x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's factor the trinomial:

x² + 14x + 40 =
x² + 4x + 10x + 40 =
x(x + 4) + 10(x + 4) =
(x + 4)(x + 10)

x + 4 is between the answer options

Correct option is D.

$x^2=\dfrac{2}{3}\to x=\pm\sqrt{\dfrac{2}{3}}\\\\x=-\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt3}\ \vee\ x=\dfrac{\sqrt2}{\sqrt3}\\\\x=-\dfrac{\sqrt2\cdot\sqrt3}{\sqrt3\cdot\sqrt3}\ \vee\ x=\dfrac{\sqrt2\cdot\sqrt3}{\sqrt3\cdot\sqrt3}\\\\\boxed{x=-\dfrac{\sqrt6}{3}\ \vee\ x=\dfrac{\sqrt6}{3}}$

Apollo 8 orbited the moon in a circular orbit. Its average altitude was 185 km above the moon's surface. Create an equation to m

You probably haven't learnt this but the general equations for circle with centre at the origin is x^2+y^2=R^2 where R is the radius of the circle so R^2=(1737+185)^2.I am lazy to press my calculator so type it in yourself.
