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

About 15​% of the population of a large country is allergic to pollenallergic to pollen. if two people are randomly​ selected, w
zubka84 [21]
P(allergic) = 0.15

P(both are allergic to pollen) = (0.15)² = 0.0225 (you can use the binomial probability also)

Q(NOT allergic to pollen) = 1 - 0.0225 = 0.9775
Binomial probability

Probability of NEITHER is allergic
ⁿCₓ(p)ˣ(q)ⁿ⁻ˣ
²C₀(0.15)⁰(0.9775)² = 0.9555

P(at LEAST ONE is allergic) = 1- 0.9555 = 0.0444

What is cos of negative pi/3?<br> what is sin of negative pi/3?
stellarik [79]
Pi/3 is equivalent to 60 degrees, as 2pi is equal to 360 degrees. cos(60) in a triangle yields 1/2, and sin(60) yields (3^(1/2))/2. Thus, -pi/3, or -60 degrees would be a fourth quadrant point on the unit circle and these values would be negative as well, at cos(-pi/3)=-1/2 and sin(-pi/3)=-(3^(1/2))/2
