Factored Form:
x^2 - 4x - 5
Simplifying:
x^2 + - 4x + - 5 = 0
Reorder the terms:
- 5 + - 4x + x^2 = 0
Solving for variable " x":
Subproblem 1:
Set the factor ( - 1 + - 1x) equal to Zero and attempt to solve.
Simplifying:
- 1 + - 1x = 0
Solving:
- 1 + - 1x = 0
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right
Add 1 to each side of equation:
- 1 + 1 + - 1x = 0 + 1
Combine Like Terms: 0 + 1 = 1
x = - 1
Divide each side by - 1
x = - 1
Simplifying: x = - 1
Subproblem 2: Set the factor (5 + - 1x) equal to Zero attempt to solve
Simplifying:
5 + - 1x = 0
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right
Add - 5 to each side of the equation
5 + - 5 + - 1x = 0 + 5
Combine Like terms: 5 + - 5 = 0
0 + - 1x = 0 + - 5
- 1x = 0 + - 5
Combine Like Terms: 0 + - 5 = - 5
- 1x = - 5
Divide each side by - 1
x = 5
Simplifying:
x = 5
Solution:
x = { - 1, 5}
Answer when factored:
(x + 1)(x - 5)
hope that helps!!!
Answer:
64.286ft
Step-by-step explanation:
6.25-->14
x-->144in=12ft im going to asume you meant 144ft or that would be a very small building
14/6.25=2.24ft shadow for 1 real foot
144/2.24=about 64.286ft
Answer:
49
Step-by-step explanation:
m^2-14m+c
Take the -14
Divide by 2
-14/2 = -7
Square it
(-7)^2 = 49
Add it to each side
m^2-14m+49
The value of c is 49
