A student used the distributive property to simplify 9(m - 4). Their answer was 9m - 4. Which answer choice best describes the s

tudent's work?
A - The student correctly simplified. The 9 was distributed to the m and now 4 will be subtracted from the product of 9 and m.

B - The student made an error. The first factor, 9, was distributed to only one of the terms inside the parentheses.

C - The student made an error. 9 should be distributed to the number 4, but not to the variable m.

D - The student made an error. 9 should be distributed to the number 4, but not to the variable m.

(Please help! D: The best answer gets to be thanked and rated!)

The answer is b, 9 was distributed to only one to m, when it needs to be distributed to both.

GEOMETRY: PLEASE HELP!!
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

GF=72

Step-by-step explanation:

All triangles in the given figure are similar, from SAS. Notice that marked in the diagram, CD=DE=EF=FA.

For triangle \triangle CGF was base GF, leg CF contains three of these marked segments. In triangle \triangle CHE with base HE, leg CE has two of these marked segments. By definition, similar polygons have corresponding sides in a constant proportion. Therefore, the length of GF must be 3/2 the length of EH. Since the length of EH is given as 48, we have:

GF=\frac{3}{2}EH, \\\\GF=\frac{3}{2}\cdot 48,\\\\GF=\boxed{72}
