Question

Solve the following system of equations. What is one x-value of a solution? f(x)=x^(2)+7x-24 g(x)=-3x-40

Answer 1

One x- value of the solution is : -2 or -8

What is an equation?

An Equation is an algebraic statement that shows that two quantities are equal.

Analysis:

for one x-value of a solution, f(x) = g(x)

$x^{2}$ + 7x -24 = -3x - 40

$x^{2}$ +7x +3x -24 +40 = 0

$x^{2}$ + 10x +16 = 0

$x^{2}$ +8x +2x +16 = 0

x(x+8) +2(x+8) = 0

(x+2)(x+8) = 0

x = -2 or -8

In conclusion, the values of x are -2 or -8
