Every whole number with a units digit of 5 can be represented by the expression 10x + 5, where x is a whole number. For example, 35 = 10(3) + 5 and 145 = 10(14) + 5. Now let’s observe the following pattern when squaring such a number.(10x + 5)2 = 100x2 + 100x + 25 = 100x(x + 1) + 25 The pattern inside the dashed box can be stated as “add 25 to the product of x, x + 1, and 100.” Thus, to compute 352 mentally, we can figure “352 = 3(4)(100) + 25 = 1225.” Compute each of the following numbers mentally, and then check your answers.(a) 152 (b) 252 (c) 452(d) 552 (e) 652 (f ) 752(g) 852 (h) 952 (i) 1052

Question
Every whole number with a units digit of 5 can be represented by the expression 10x + 5, where x is a whole number. For example, 35 = 10(3) + 5 and 145 = 10(14) + 5. Now let’s observe the following pattern when squaring such a number.
(10x + 5)2 = 100x2 + 100x + 25
= 100x(x + 1) + 25
The pattern inside the dashed box can be stated as “add 25 to the product of x, x + 1, and 100.” Thus, to compute 352 mentally, we can figure “352 = 3(4)(100) + 25 = 1225.” Compute each of the following numbers mentally, and then check your answers.
(a) 152 (b) 252 (c) 452
(d) 552 (e) 652 (f ) 752
(g) 852 (h) 952 (i) 1052
