3. Factor the expression. d2 + 120 + 36
A (d + 6)2
B (d - 36)(0 - 1)
OC (d - 6)2
D (d + 6)(d - 6)

The complete factored form of this equation is (d + 6)²

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step in factoring this equation is multiply the first term and the last term together. Out first term is d² and our last term is 36. Since d² does not have a coefficient, then we assume this number to be 1.

1 × 36 = 36

So, now we need to find two factors that multiply to 36 and add together to get 12. Two factors that best represents this is 6 and 6. So, we will plug these numbers into our equation. Replace 12d with 6d + 6d.

d² + 6d + 6d + 36

Group the first two terms together and the last two terms together.

(d² + 6d) + (6d + 36)

Now, find the greatest common factor of each parentheses and factor the terms.

d(d + 6) + 6(d + 6)

From looking at this, we can tell that this equation is a perfect squared equation. So, this means instead of writing both parentheses, we can just write one of the parentheses and square it.

So, the factored form of this equation is (d + 6)²

y = 5x + 17

step-by-step explanation:

a perpendicular line will be the opposite reciprocal slope of the given equation.   the slope given is -1/5 so the opposite reciprocal is 5

find b:

7 = 5 (-2) + b

7 = -10 + b

17 = b

write equation

y = 5x + 17

answer:   28.56 feet (approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, triangle abc has measure of angle c equal to 55 degrees, measure of angle abc equal to 90 degrees, and length of bc equal to 20 feet.

we have to find out the measurement of segment ab.

therefore, tan 55° =

but bc = 20 feet.

⇒ tan 55 ° =  

⇒ ab = 20 × tan 55 °

⇒ ab = 20 × 1.42814800674

⇒ ab = 28.5629601348   ≈ 28.56 feet
