Answer:

<h2>x = -1 or x = 7</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2-6x-7=0\\\\x^2+x-7x-7=0\\\\x(x+1)-7(x+1)=0\\\\(x+1)(x-7)=0\iff x+1=0\ \vee\ x-7=0\\\\x+1=0\qquad\text{subtract 1 from both sides}\\\bold{x=-1}\\\\x-7=0\qquad\text{add 7 to both sides}\\\bold{x=7}

Answer:

x = - 1, x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 6x - 7 = 0

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 7 ) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term

The factors are - 7 and + 1, since

- 7 × 1 = - 7 and - 7 + 1 = - 6, hence

(x - 7)(x + 1) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x - 7 = 0 ⇒ x = 7

x + 1 = 0 ⇒ x = - 1

Which of the following is a solution of 12 x - 7 &gt; 6?<br><br> -1<br> 0<br> 1<br> 2
Mkey [24]

Answer:

The answer to your question is "2"

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

       12x - 7 > 6

Process

1.- Add +7 in both sides of the inequality

       12x - 7 + 7 > 6 + 7

2.- Simplify

       12x >  13

3.- Divide by 12 both sides

         12x/12 > 13/12

                 x > 13/12    or   x >  1.08  

4.- Conclusion

     All the numbers higher than 1.08 are solutions of this inequality

    Then, from the choices, the only possible solution is 2.

Which function has the largest y - intercept?
lesantik [10]
F(x) is a quadratic. The y intercept, therefore, is equal to the c value.
The y intercept here is -4.
For g(x), you can tell that the y intercept is 0 because that's the value of y when the x value is 0.
For h(x), the chart specifies that when x=0, y=-2, so the y intercept is -2.
Of these three values, 0 is the largest.
Final answer: g(x)
