Answer:

If the perimeter of a square is 28 inches and the area of the square is (x2 + 4x + 4) square inches, and x is a both a real and a positive number, then the value of x must be 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

All sides of a square are equal length.

The area of a square is the side length squared.

perimeter p, side length s, area a, and variable x.

p = 28.   s = ?   a = x^2 + 4x + 4.   x = ?

p = 28

p = 4s.

28 = 4s.

7 = s.

a = s^2.

s = 7.

a = 7^2.

a = 49.

a = x^2 + 4x + 4.

a = 49.

x^2 + 4x + 4 = 49.

factor x^2 + 4x + 4.

(x+2)(x+2) = 49.

(x+2)^2 = 49.

√ ((x+2)^2) = √49.

take positive answer.

x+2 = 7

x = 5.

<h3>Answer:  -19, -15, -9, -1, 9   (choice A)</h3>

===================================================

Explanation:

If we plug in x = -2, then we get,

y = x^2 + 7x - 9

y = (-2)^2 + 7(-2) - 9

y = 4 - 14 - 9

y = -10 - 9

y = -19

So x = -2 leads to y = -19. The answer is between A and D.

---------

If you repeat those steps for x = -1, then you should get y = -15

Then x = 0 leads to y = -9

x = 1 leads to y = -1

Finally, x = 2 leads to y = 9

The outputs we get are: -19, -15, -9, -1, 9 which is choice A

Choice D is fairly close, but we won't have a second copy of -15, and  we don't have an output of -19.

A map has a scale of 5 in. = 15 mi. If you measured the distance between two cities to be 26 in. On the map, how many miles woul
Reil [10]

Answer:

Actual distance between the two cities given on the map = 78.0 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Scale used for the actual distance between two cities on a map is,

5 in. = 15 mi.

\frac{5}{15} in. = \frac{15}{15} mi.

1 mi. = \frac{1}{3} in.

1 inch = 3 miles

Therefore, 26 inches on the map = 26 × 3

                                                        = 78 miles

Therefore, actual distance between the two cities given on the map = 78.0 miles
