Let's change number one from (5+2) x (5+2) into (5+2)(5+2) NOW what is the answer? (5+2)(5+2) (7)(7) 49.

i think ya got c wrong my self but hey what do i know 21B + 21A = -2B - 20A (SIMPLIFY DOWN) should that not be 21b - 2b == 19b 21a - 20a ==a

lol figure this one out took me two years to pass pre-algebra, adn aced at the top of my class in Geometry, which supposedly you can not do unless you understand algebra.

what the heck? that is strange...oh well...i excelled in physics AND chemistry...which both require a lot of algebra...science just makes more sense to me
