Brianna, this is the solutiuon:
Part 2: Recalling that the perfect square trinomial has the form:
ax² + bx + c
(x - 1)² = (x - 1) * (x - 1)
x² - x - x + 1
x² - 2x + 1
Thus, b = -2. The correct answer is A.
Part 3: Recalling that the perfect square trinomial has the form:
ax² + bx + c
(x + 25)² = (x + 25) * (x + 25)
x² + 25x + 25x + 625
x² + 50x + 625
Therefore, c = 625. The correct answer is D.
