Factor the polynomial:
4u² – 20u + 25
Rewrite – 20u as – 10u – 10u, and then factor it by grouping:
= 4u² – 10u – 10u + 25
= 2u * (2u – 5) – 5 * (2u – 5)
= (2u – 5) * (2u – 5)
= (2u – 5)² <––– this is the answer.
I hope this helps. =)
Answer:
Danny does
Step-by-step explanation: 40 / 4 = 10
85 / 5 = 17
10 is less than 17 meaning that Danny is offering a better deal.

Answer: a) x = 5 or -1 b) x = √3+2
c) x = -1/2 or -3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
a) (x − 2)² = 9
First step is to take the square root of both sides to eliminate the square
√ (x − 2)² = √9
x-2 = +-3
x = +3+2
x = 5 and;
x = -3+2
x = -1
x = 5 or -1
b) 3(x-2)² = 9
First we divide both sides by 3 to get;
(x-2)² = 9/3
(x-2)² = 3
Second step is to take the square root of both sides to eliminate the square
√(x-2)² = √3
x-2 = √3
x = √3+2
c) 6 = 24(x+1)²
Dividing both sides by 24, we have
6/24 = (x+1)²
1/4 = (x+1)²
Taking the square root of both sides we have
√1/4 = √(x+1)²
= +-1/2 = x+1
x = +1/2-1 = -1/2 and;
x = -1/2-1 = -3/2
x = -1/2 or -3/2
$63.54 is the price after the discount and tax
Answer: 7
Step-by-step explanation:
8x +5 = 61
subtract 5 from both sides
8x = 56 divide both sides by 8 to get x by itself
x= 7
