Ill records the wins and losses for his high school basketball team each year. he notices that the ratio of wins to losses has been consistent each year.

wins
losses
18
2
45
5
36
4
27
x

using the information in the table, how many losses should he predict for next year if the number of games won is 27?
1
3
6
9

I would guess 3 based on the information given.

Its 3. I just toke the test and got it right

graph b

step-by-step explanation:

one solution- graph a (clear intercepting point.)

no solution- graph b (they're parallel, there will never be a point of interception.)

infinite solutions- graph c (all points intercept.)

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
