What is an expression?

An expression is a mathematical phrase combining numbers and/or variables using mathematical operations. Both sides of an equation are expressions.

According to the question,

The expression [tex]2x+(x-7)^2[/tex] is equivalent to [tex]x^2+bx+49[/tex].

[tex]2x+(x-7)^{2}=x^{2} +bx+49[/tex]

[tex]2x+(x-7)^{2}=x^{2} +bx+49[/tex]

[tex]2x+x^{2} -14x+49=x^{2} +bx+49[/tex]

[tex]x^{2} -12x+49=x^{2} +bx+49[/tex]

[tex]-12x=bx[/tex]

[tex]b=-12[/tex]

∴  [tex]b=-12[/tex]

Hence, the expression [tex]2x+(x-7)^2[/tex] is equivalent to [tex]x^2+bx+49[/tex].

Then Value of b is - 12.

Option(B) is correct answer.
