Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The given expression is 
Comparing to
, we have 
We add and subtract 

This implies that:

The expression in the rectangle is a perfect square

Therefore 
Answer:
So I'm not completely sure what the x is standing for in this. Is it standing at a multiplication sign like -14 TIMES 2? Or is it -14x TIMES 2?
Step-by-step explanation:
-6x -17 ≥ 8x + 25
Subtract 8x from each side:
-14x -17 ≥ 25
Add 17 to each side:
-14x ≥ 42
Divide each side by 14 :
-x ≥ 3
Change the signs. (Multiply each side by -1.)
That's when you have to flip the inequality symbol.
x ≤ -3
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A) AA postulate; 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Due to the similar triangles, we can set up the proportion and solve for x
8/(8+4) = 12/x
8/12 = 12/x
8*x = 12*12 ... cross multiply
8x = 144
x = 144/8
x = 18
