90 square ft (try and look at it like each side is a 2d rectangle, find the areas of the sides and then add them up.)
Answer: y = 1/2 or y = -1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
First move the 1 to the side with the 0
-4y^2 = -1 // -1 because when you move a number to the other side of the equation you have to multiply -1
Then divide by -4 on each side
y^2 = 1/4
square root each side
|y| = 1/2 // sq rt y^2 becomes an absolute value because when you square root a square it automatically becomes an absolute value
so the answer would be y = 1/2 or -1/2
to check just put it into the equation as y. Both work.
Answer:
Option D. It's a perfect square trinomial.
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) 36x² - 4x + 16
= (6x)² - 2(2x) + (4)²
It's not a perfect square trinomial
(b) 16x² - 8x + 36
= (4x)² - 2x(4x) + (6)²
It's not a perfect square trinomial
(c) 25x² + 9x + 4
= (5x)² + 2
+ (2)²
It's not a perfect square trinomial
(d) 4x² + 20x + 25
= (2x)² + 2(10x) + (5)²
= (2x+5)²
It's a perfect square trinomial.
