Answer:
D. Keep track of the number of heads flipped in 50 flips. These represent the number of females born today. Repeat this 200 times.
Supplementary means that the angles have to add up to 180, so you have your equation.
180=5x+17x-18
198=22x
x=9
Then to find the measures of the angles, you plug x back in.
m∠ABD=5(9)=45 degrees
m∠BDE=17(9)-18=153-18=135 degrees

The first term is, <span> <span>x2</span> </span> its coefficient is <span> 1 </span>.
The middle term is, <span> -9x </span> its coefficient is <span> -9 </span>.
The last term, "the constant", is <span> -36 </span>
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant <span> <span> 1</span> • -36 = -36</span>
Step-2 : Find two factors of -36 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is <span> -9 </span>.
<span><span> -36 + 1 = -35</span><span> -18 + 2 = -16</span><span> -12 + 3 = -9 That's it</span></span>
Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -12 and 3
<span>x2 - 12x</span> + 3x - 36
Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :
x • (x-12)
Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :
3 • (x-12)
Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :
(x+3) • (x-12)
Which is the desired factorization
Final result :<span> (x + 3) • (x - 12)</span>
