Answer:

16.5 ≈ x

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a right triangle where we know 1 side, 1 angle and we need to find another side. We can use trigonometric functions to find the missing side.

The tangent function definition is

tan α = opposite side/ adjacent side

In our problem

tan 70° = x/ 6, multiply both sides by 6 to isolate x

6 · tan 70° = x, use the calculator (make sure is set in degrees)

16.4848 ≈ x , round to the nearest tenths

16.5 ≈ x

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is (2x+5)^2.

It can't be A because 2 is the multiplier for only x.

It can't be C because the square is outside of the equation.

It can't be D because again, the square is outside of the equation.

So the only thing left is B.
