Answer:
I think is is 14 square inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
2 plus 2 plus 5 plus 5 = 14
I don't know if this is right.
not times because 2 time 2 times 5 times 5 equals 100. there is no 100 . divide is not working and subtract is not working so add. I hoke this is correct and helps.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a = 2, b = 1, c = -3
We need to factor this by finding the product of a and c, then from there find which factors of a * c will either add or subtract to give us b.
a * c = 6 and the factors of 6 and 1 and 6, 2 and 3. Well, 6 - 1 doesn't equal 1 and neither does 6 + 1. So our factors are 3 and 2. In order to combine those to get a 1 (our b), we will subtract 2 from 3 since 3 - 2 = 1. That means that 3 is positive and 2 is negative. Filling in the formula with 3 and 2 in place of 1 looks like this (always remember to put the absolute value of the largest number first):

Group the first 2 terms together and the second 2 term together in order to factor:
and factor out what's common in each set of parenthesis.

Notice that when we factor out a -1 from the second set of parenthesis, we can distribute it back in to get the equation we started with. We know that factoring by grouping "works" if what is inside both sets of parenthesis is exactly the same. Ours are identical: (2x + 3). That is common now, and can be factored out:

That matches your first choice
