Basically expand
use FOIL (a way to remember distributive property)
first outer inner last
that is th eorder to multiply them
First: x times 2x=2x²
Outer: x tmes 9=9x
Inner: -8 times 2=-16x
last: -8 times 9=-72
add them
2x²+9x-16x-72
2x²-7x-72
Answer:
x = 3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
By definition, congruent chords are equidistant from the center of a circle. We are given two congruent chords and their distances(the lines perpendicular), meaning those distances must be equal. We set set up an equation to model the situation:
x + 8 = 3x + 1
8 = 2x + 1
2x = 7
x = 3.5
<span>3x2− 5x + 5 = 0.
a=3 b=-5 c=5
A. a = 3, b = 5, c = 5
B. a = 3, b = −5, c = 5
C. a = 5, b = −5, c = 0
D. a = −3, b = 5, c = −5
answer is B

Answer:
(10,51)
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the average of 3 (x1) and 17(x2). This will be your new x-coordinate.
Then take the average of 21 (y1) and 81 (y2)
(3+17)/2 = 10
(21+81)/2 = 51

its a
