Lucas and Tony were trying to solve the equation: x^2=16x+25 Lucas said, "The x^2, squared term is isolated, so I"ll take the square root of both sides and solve." Tony said, "I'll solve using the quadratic formula with a=1,b=16, an c equals 25." Whose solution strategy would work? Choose 1

Tony's solution strategy

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation that Lucas and Tony trying to solve expressed as: x^2=16x+25

This can be written in standard form as x^2 - 16x - 25 = 0

This can then be factorized using the general formula

x = -b±√b²-4ac/2a where a, b and c are constants

From the given expression;

a = 1, b = -16, c = -15

Hence the best strategy that would have worked based on the explanation is Tony's

answer: a video game has three difficulty levels: easy, medium, and expert. the game's scoring works in such a way that a player has to score a fixed number of points to advance to the next level, and then the scoring starts over. the total score needed to clear all three difficulty levels is 7,500. two times the number of points needed to clear the easy level is 500 more than the number of points needed to clear the medium level. twice the number of points needed to clear the medium difficulty level is 1,500 more than the number of points needed to clear the expert level. if x, y, and z represent the easy, medium, and expert levels, respectively, and a is the coefficient matrix of the system of equations modeling this situation, identify the inverse matrix, a-1, and the solution matrix, x, of the system of equations.
