Anthony brought an 8 -foot board. He cut off 3/4 of the board to build a shelf and gave 1/3 of the rest to his brother for an art project. How many inches long was the piece Anthony gave to his brother?

7.2 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4th of 8 feet = 6 ft.

Balance = 2 feet

1/3 of 2 feet = 2/3 = 0.67 ft = 8 inches

50-60=10

step-by-step explanation:

the polynomial is a perfect square trinomial of the form a^2-2ab+b^2:

option a. true

step-by-step explanation:

9x^2-12x+4

comparing with the form a^2-2ab+b^2

1.) a^2=9x^2

solving for a: square root both sides of the equation:

sqrt(a^2)=sqrt(9x^2)

a=sqrt(9) sqrt(x^2)

a=3x

2.) b^2=4

solving for b: square root both sides of the equation:

sqrt(b^2)=sqrt(4)

b=2

to be a perfet square trinomial 2ab must be equal to 12x. let's check:

2ab = 2 (3x) (2)

2ab = 12x

correct
