Answer:
The simplest way to teach middle school math scale drawings is to use real pictures to relate to each other to explain the concept. For example, scaling a red ball of 1" to a ball of 2" and so on. This will show how the ball increases by size by adding 1" each time.
For this item, we let x be the number of hours she works out and y be the total number of bananas that she will be eating after the workout. The expression that best described the given above is,
y = 5 + 2x
5 is given as the y-intercept because of the initial condition.
The answer is d because all the other options are less than 34

Answer: Choice D. 4x^2 + 20x + 25</h3>
===============================================
Explanation:
Perfect square trinomials are in the form (a+b)^2 = a^2+2ab+b^2
So the first and last terms must be perfect squares. The middle term is twice that of the square roots of each first and last term.
Choice D fits the description because 4x^2 = (2x)^2 is the first term, so a = 2x and 25 = 5^2 is the last term meaning b = 5. Note how 2ab = 2*2x*5 = 20x is the middle term.
-------------
(a+b)^2 = a^2+2ab+b^2
(2x+5)^2 = (2x)^2+2*2x*5+5^2
(2x+5)^2 = 4x^2 + 20x + 25
