What is the value of n x^2 + 11x + n is a perfect trinomial 11 25 30.25 36

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

divide 11 by 2 then square it

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

(x + a)^2 = x^2 + 2a + a^2

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

do you follow the reasoning?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yah sorry im back I had to step out for a moment :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh thanks I was confused by the steps but now I understand more :)

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

if you compare your trinomial and the identity I posted you see that 2a = 11 and you need to find a^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok thanks I think I got it now :)

OpenStudy (cwrw238):

yw
