Answer: Choice A. x^2+9</h3>
This is a sum of squares, which cannot be factored over the real numbers. You'll need to involve complex numbers to be able to factor, though its likely your teacher hasn't covered that topic yet (though I could be mistaken and your teacher has mentioned it).
Choice B can be factored through the difference of squares rule. Therefore, choice B is not prime.
Choice C and D can be factored by pulling out the GCF and then use the difference of squares rule afterward. So we can rule out C and D as well.
The subtraction property of equality: if we subtract one side of the equation then we also must subtract from the other side of the equation.
The division property of equality: if we divide one side of the equation by a number then we also must divide the other side by the same number.
For this equation:
3 x + 5 = 26
3 x + 5 - 5 = 26 - 5 ( the Subtraction Property of Equality )
3 x = 21
3 x : 3 = 21 : 3 ( the Division Property of Equality )
x = 7
Answer: C ) The standard method for solving an equation like 3 x + 5 = 26 is to use the Subtraction Property of Equality and then the Division Property of Equality.
Expressed as a fraction 56 is 56/35 of 35. That fraction can be reduced, and expressed several ways.
56/35 = 8/5 = 1 3/5 = 1.6
56 is 1 3/5 of 35
56 is 1.6 times 35
