Kylie explained that (–4x + 9)2 will result in a difference of squares because (–4x + 9)2 = (–4x)2 + (9)2 = 16x2 + 81. Which statement best describes Kylie’s explanation?Kylie is correct.
Kylie correctly understood that it is a difference of squares, but she did not determine the product correctly.
Kylie did not understand that this is a perfect square trinomial, and she did not determine the product correctly.
Kylie determined the product correctly, but she did not understand that this is a perfect square trinomial.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:
The expression (-4x + 9)^2 cannot be equal to (-4x)^2 + 9^2 because it is actually equal to the product of two factors (3 + 2sqrt x) (3- 2 sqrt x). One cannot use obviously distributive property. Hence the answer to this problem should be C. as she did not understand both perfect square trinomial and did not determine the product 
Answer 2
Answer: The correct answer is: (C) Kylie did not understand that this is a perfect square trinomial, and she did not determine the product correctly.

Explanation:
Kylie did not determine the product correctly, as the perfect-square trinomials are of the form:
a^2x^2 \pm 2axb \pm b^2

and are expressed in the squared-binomial form as:
(ax \pm b)^2

The correct product would be:
(-4x + 9)^2 = (-4x)^2 + 2(-4)(9)x + (9)^2 = 16x^2 - 72x + 81

Hence the correct answer is that Kylie did not understand that this is a perfect square trinomial, and she did not determine the product correctly (Option C).

a) The number when 40% of the number is 10

Answers

Step 1) Set up a proportion

Proportion: percent / 100 = x / number

In context of the problem, the proportion is: 40 / 100 = 10 / number

Step 2) Cross-multiply and solve

100 x 10 = 40 x N

1000 = 40N

N = 25

Answer: The number is 25

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

Lettheunknown number bex

40 \% * x = 10 \n  (40x)/(100)  =  (10)/(1)

CrossMultiply

40x = 100 * 10 \n 40x = 1000

Divide both sides of the equation by40

(40x)/(40)  =  (1000)/(40)

Simplify

x = 25

I really need your help ! Thanks

Answers

A negative exponent (-n) just means that your base (a) is on the wrong side of the fraction bar meaning you would need to flip it to the other side. For example; if you have to write 2x^-3 using only positive exponents. you have 2x^-3/1 so you would have to move the negative exponent to the bottom which gives you 2/1x^3.

make sense?
