Which one of the following values of k makes the trinomial 9x^2 + kx + 64 a perfect square a 24
b 48
c 16
d 42

it is C 16

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - kx + 64

Since we are looking for a perfect square, then we need to take the square root of 64 to find the factors: √64 = 8

So, the factors are: (x - 8)(x - 8)

 Foil (or distribute) to get: x² - 16x + 64 The k-value is 16

let x be the money she spent so that she can earn the free t-shirt.

since, she already spent $112.49

⇒

also, as per the statement: jennifer must spend $250 or more in order to qualify for a free t-shirt at the store.

then,

we have an inequality i.,e

subtract 112.49 from both sides we get;

therefore, $137. 51 more money does jennifer need to spend so that she can earn the free t-shirt
