Aleks and Melanie used a protractor to measure the angle below. Aleks thinks the angle measures 50° but Melanie says it is actually 130°. Their teacher confirms that Melanie has the correct answer. What mistake did Aleks make while measuring the angle?

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:   x (x+6)^2, choice b

discussion:

factor x out of the equation:

x^3 + 12x^2 + 36x = x (x^2 + 12x + 36).

note that 6+6 = 12 and 6*6 = 36 so the above factors into:

x (x+6)^2

which is choice b

the correct answer is c

really your just stupid if you don't know this
