Answer:

~91 chirps/min

Step-by-step explanation:

This exercise is asking us to estimate based on the values in the table. If we know the temperature is 65°F, let's find the closest values given to interpolate (assuming the data is fairly linear, which it appears to be).

Looks like the closest ones are 60° and 68°. We will look at their corresponding chirps/min and guess a number in between those two.

60° -> 81 chirps/min

68° -> 97 chirps/min

Because 65 is closer to 68 than 60, we expect our result to be closer to 97 than 81.

slope = rise/run

(97-81)/(68-60) = (16)/(8) = 2 chirps/min/°F. So for every °F increase, we expect to increase by 2 chirps/min.

60+5 = 65, so let's add 2*5 = 10 chirps/min to 60 to get 91 chirps/min. This corresponds with what we would have guessed.

Choose the correct product of (9x − 5)(9x + 5).81x2 + 90x + 25
81x2 − 25
81x2 + 25
81x2 − 90x + 25

Answers

Hi,
(a+b)(a-b=a²-b²
Thus (9x)²-5²=81x²-25

Answer:

The Answer is B

Step-by-step explanation:

(9x−5)(9x+5)

=(9x+−5)(9x+5)

=(9x)(9x)+(9x)(5)+(−5)(9x)+(−5)(5)

=81x2+45x−45x−25

=81x2−25
