Question

Kylie explained that (negative 4 x + 9) squared will result in a difference of squares because (negative 4 x + 9) squared = (negative 4 x) squared + (9) squared = 16 x squared + 81. Which statement best describes Kylie's explanation? Kylie is correct. Kylie correctly understood that it is a difference of squares, but she did not determine the product correctly. Kylie did not understand that this is a perfect square trinomial, and she did not determine the product correctly. Kylie determined the product correctly, but she did not understand that this is a perfect square trinomial.

Answer 1

Given:

Explanation:

Kylie did not understand that this is a perfect square trinomial, and she did not determine the product correctly.

This is because the product will be a trinomial and the polynomial will not result in a difference of squares. A difference of squares is when the factor are inverse to each other.

Answer 2

C- Kylie did not understand that this is a perfect square trinomial, and she did not determine the product correctly.
