Answer:
9m^2+17m-9
Step-by-step explanation:
9/11 is rounded to 1. It rounds up because 9 is higher than 5, which is the middle of 11.
A because it start at 20 and divided 1/2 each time. And when you solved 2/ 1/2 , you get 4 and that is correct because you have 4 arrows.

Answer: Choice D. 4^2+5^2 = x^2</h3>
See note at the bottom
========================================================
The entire building is 20 feet. Fifteen feet of that is from the ground to the first landing of the stairs or fire escape. So 20-15 = 5 feet represents the height of the second set of stairs (leading to the roof of the building)
The base of the triangle is 4 feet as shown in the diagram. The height is 5 feet as found in the prior paragraph. Use the pythagorean theorem to say
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
4^2 + 5^2 = x^2
Note: If you meant to write 4^2+5^2 = x^2 for choice D, then that would be the answer. Otherwise, there is a typo somewhere.
