For the trinomial to be a perfect square trinomial the coefficient for the x^2 term must. E a perfect square.
Letter C
Answer:
a(10 - 13)
Step-by-step explanation:
The only common factor between these numbers is a, as 10 and 13 do not share factors (13 is prime). We can only factor out a.
------------------------------------------------------------
Define the numbers
------------------------------------------------------------
First the first odd integer be x.
1st odd = x
2nd odd = x + 2
3rd odd = x + 4
------------------------------------------------------------
Form the equation and solve for x
------------------------------------------------------------
5(x + 4) - 94 = x + 2
5x + 20 - 94 = x + 2
5x - 74 = x + 2
5x - x = 2 + 74
4x = 76
x = 19
------------------------------------------------------------
Find the 3 consecutive integers
------------------------------------------------------------
1st = x = 19
2nd = x + 2 = 19 + 2 = 21
3rd = x + 4 = 19 + 4 = 23
------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The 3 consecutive odd numbers are 19, 21 and 23
