You answered correctly for part a. just simplify it. so for part a it would be x^4 + 8x^3 + 24x^2 + 32x + 16. repeat what you did in part a with part b (add & simplify). btw, the missing side in part c is 2x-x = x
Answer:
probably square root of 5
The straight line is given by the equation
y=kx+b
We substitute coordinates of points
-21=-66k+b (1)
2=-67k+b (2)
We give a system of equations
Solution of this system:
(1) b=66k-21
(2) 20=-67k+66k-21
20=-k-21
k=-21-20
k=-41
b=-41*66-21=-2727
y=-41x-2727
