Your answer is D. 16x² - 56xy + 49y².
A perfect square trinomial is the result of a squared binomial, like (a + b)². Using this example, the perfect square trinomial would be a² + 2ab + b², as that is what you get when you expand the brackets.
Therefore, to determine which of these is a perfect square trinomial, we have to see if it can be factorised into the form (a + b)².
I did this by first square rooting the 16x² and 49y² to get 4x and 7y as our two terms in the brackets. We automatically know the answer isn't A or B as you cannot have a negative square number.
Now that we know the brackets are (4x + 7y)², we can expand to find out what the middle term is, so:
(4x + 7y)(4x + 7y)
= 16x² + (7y × 4x) + (7y × 4x) + 49y²
= 16x² + 28xy + 28xy + 49y²
= 16x² + 56xy + 49y².
So we know that the middle number is 56xy. Now we assumed that it was (4x + 7y)², but the same 16x² and 49y² can also be formed by (4x - 7y)², and expanding this bracket turns the +56xy into -56xy, forming option D, 16x² - 56xy + 49y².
I hope this helps!
Answer:
a. 1/2 + 9/10 = 5/10+9/10 = 14/10 = 7/5 = 1 2/5 meters or ribbon
b. 5/8 = 15/24, 7/12 = 14/24 Jeff jogged longer and by 1/24 kilometers
c. 3/9 = 6/18. 15/18-6/18 = 9/18 = 1/2 left.
Hope this helps :)

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
y=-5x
Step-by-step explanation:
this is because slope intercept form is y=mx+b
if m= -5 and b=0 the answer would be
y=-5x+0
simplified it would be
y=-5x
Answer:
53
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum of interior angles of a pentagon = 540°
Therefore,
2x° +2x° + 3x° + 3x° + 10 = 540°
10x° + 10° = 540°
10x° = 540° - 10°
10x° = 530°
10x = 530
x = 530/10
x = 53
