Hey love! <3
Answer:
Your answer is (4x + 5)(4x + 5), or D
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 16 • 25 = 400
After that you have to find two factors of 400, the sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which equals 40!
Once you've found the factors write the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, 20 and 20.
16x2 + 20x + 20x + 25
Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors!!
4x • (4x+5)
Finally add up the last two terms and add up the four terms of the previous equation
5 • (4x+5)
(4x+5) • (4x+5)
Thus, our answer being (4x+5)(4x+5).
Hope this helps ya, babe! ＼(●~▽~●) Sincerely, Kelsey from Brainly.
