Answer:

x=4 x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2+x-20=0

Factor

What 2 numbers multiply to -20 and add to 1

-4*5 =-20 and

-4+5 =1

(x-4) (x+5) =0

Using the zero product property

x-4 =0 x+5=0

x=4 x=-5

Answer:

Substitution Property

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that:

$m\angle A=m\angle B$

And we also know that:

$m\angle A+m\angle C=\angle D$

And by using a specific property, we get that:

$m\angle B+m\angle C=\angle D$

Essentially, we <em>substituted</em> B for A.

So, this is an example of the substitution property, where if two sides/angles are congruent, we can substitute them for each other.

Answer:

(-x-2) (-2x -3)=0

=>[-(x +2)] [-(2x+3)]=0

=>(x + 2)(2x +3)=0

=>x =-2 or,x=-3/2

smaller x=-2

larger x =-3/2
