The absolute value 
returns the "positive version" of a number.
In other words, if the number is positive, it remains positive; if the number is negative, it changes sign.
So, if we want 
, we want the "positive version" of x to be 9.
This can happen in two ways: if x is already 9, then its absolute value is still nine. If instead x=-9, its positive value will be 9 again.
In formula, we have
because
Answer:
x=-5/2
Step-by-step explanation:
4 x^2 +20 x +25 = 0
x^2+5x=-25/4
(b/2)^2=(5/2)^2
x^2+5x+25/4=0
(x+5/2)^2=0
x=-5/2

Answer: B. Cannot be determined
Explanation:
We can't use SAS since we don't have two pairs of proportional sides. We only know one pair of sides. This also rules out SSS as well since we'd need 3 pairs of proportional sides.
We can't use AA because we don't have two pairs of congruent angles.
Currently, we simply don't have enough information to determine if the triangles are similar or not.
