Use simultaneous equations:
2x + 7 = x^2 + 8x - 9
7 = x^2 + 6x - 9
16 = x^2 + 6x
+ or - 4 = 7x
answer is
-4/7 or 4/7
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for finding the distance between 2 points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is
d = √[(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²]
Here (x2, y2) = (2, 3) and (x1, y1) = (4, -3)
Plugging them gives us
d = √[(2 - 4)² + (3 - (-3))²]
d = √[(2 - 4)² + (3 + 3)²]
Pick a number: 5
Add 7: 5+7=12
Triple the result: 12*12*12=1728
Add 9= 1728+9=1737
Divide by 3 = 1737/3=579
Subtract original number = 579-5=574
Now pick a different number a do the same process
Hope that helps
