y = 2x - 4 y=x+5
*11. Write How can you check your work when finding a product of two binomials using (60) special-product patterns?
*12. Verify Tell whether the statement (9x + 8)(9x + 8) = 81x2 + 64 is true or false. If (60) false, explain why.
Measurement The perimeter of a rectangle is 78 feet. The length is 3 feet more than 14. Error Analysis Two students are in the process of finding the solution to the system

(59) 3 times the width. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.
(59) of equations. Which student is correct? Explain the error. x + 4y = 19
6x + 5y = 38
Student B
x = -4y + 19 6(-4y + 19) + 5y = 38 -24y + 19 + 5y = 38 -19y = 19
y = -1
Student A
x = -4y + 19 6(-4y + 19) + 5y = 38 -24y + 114 + 5y = 38
-19y = -76
_
y = 76 = 4 19
