<span>In two similar triangles, like the one we see above, the ratio of their areas is the square of the ratio of their sides. 

Based on the graph, we see that BD is 3 times larger than BA. This means that the area of DBE will be 3</span>² times larger, or 9 times larger, than the area of ABC.

Area of ABC = 3 square units
Area of DBE = 3 * 9 = 27 square units
Answer is A.

Find the coefficient of x2 in (3x2 – 5) (4 + 4x2), expand using algebraic expressions and answer
Scilla [17]

Answer:

- 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(3x² - 5)(4 + 4x²)

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

3x²(4 + 4x²) - 5 (4 + 4x²) ← distribute both parenthesis

= 12x² + 12x^{4} - 20 - 20x² ← collect like terms

= 12x^{4} - 8x² - 20

The coefficient of the x² term is - 8
