Caitlyn is correct.
Both factored correctly but the reason Gabby is wrong is because of the Zero Product Property, which says if (x-4)(x+1)=0, then (x-4)=0 or (x+1)=0.

If (x-4)=0, then the value of x must be 4.
If (x+1)=0, then the value of x must be -1.

Answer:

No solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

So lets solve the square root.

Sqrt(y^2 - 20 + 100) = y - 10

Sqrt(y^2 + 80 = y - 10)

Solve time.

y^2 + 80 = y - 10 (We are squaring them)

y^2 + 80 = y^2 - 20y + 100

y^2 + 80 - y^2 = y^2 - 20y + 100 - y^2 (Subtract y^2 from both sides)

80 = -20y + 100

Flip it

-20y + 100 = 80

-20y + 100 - 100 = 80 - 100 (Subtract 100 from both sides)

-20y = -20

Now divide both sides by -20

-20y/-20 = -20/-20

y = 1

All you would do is plug in the values and you get...

9 \neq -9

This is false.

X^2+ 17x+91=0<br> Help please!!
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

x^2+17x+91=0

a = 1; b = 17; c = +91;

Δ = b2-4ac

Δ = 172-4·1·91

Δ = -75

Delta is less than zero, so there is no solution for the equation
