Answer: C) 5</h3>
==========================================================
Work Shown:
s = square side length
A = area of square = 9x^2+12x+4
A = s^2
A = (ax+b)^2
A = a^2*x^2 + 2abx + b^2 .... apply the FOIL rule
A = 9x^2 + 12x + 4
Equating corresponding terms, we see that,
- a^2*x^2 = 9x^2 which shows that a^2 = 9 and that solves to a = 3, assuming 'a' is positive.
- 2abx = 12x leads to 2ab = 12 or ab = 6. Using a = 3 we can find that b = 2.
- b^2 = 4 solves to b = 2 which matches with the previous value of b found.
Using a = 3 and b = 2, the sum of the values is a+b = 3+2 = 5, so that's why the answer is choice C.
Side note: 9x^2 + 12x + 4 factors to (3x + 2)^2
Here you go!! Those are the points and labeled for you
180(n-2)=n*144 in our case
solving for n we obtain:
36n = 360
n=10 sides
First transform it into an improper fraction or 5/3. Then divide 5 by 3. The answer is 1.666666 repeating
