X^2 + 14x + 17 = -96

x^2 + 14x + = -113

x^2 + 14x + (14/2)^2 = -133 + (14/2)^2

x^2 + 14x + 49 = -64

(x+7)(x+7) = -64

Find the square root of both sides

(x+7) = √-64

x + 7 = √-64

x = -7 +/- √-64

HOWEVER, the square root of a negative number does not exist among the set of Real Numbers.

The imaginary number "i" replaces the square root of negative 64.

So...

x = -7 +/- 8i
(solution is read as: x equals to negative seven plus or minutes 8i)

Hi there,

2 + 14x + 17 = -96
19 + 14x = -96
14x = -96 - 19
14x = -115

Hence, X = 8.21429
             X = -115/14
             X = -8 3/14

Hope this helps :)

Find the equation of a circle with the same center as the circle in the graph above and that passes through a point 2 units away
Ira Lisetskai [31]
The equation of a circle with center at (a, b) and radius, r, is given by
(x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2

The given circle in the graph has the center at (0, 2) with the radius of 1 units.

<span>A circle with the same center as the circle in the graph and that passes through a point 2 units away from the given circle has its center at (0, 2) and a radius of 3 units.

Thus the equation of the circle is given by
(x-0)^2+(y-2)^2=3^2 \\  \\ x^2+y^2-4y+4=9 \\  \\ x^2+y^2-4y-5=0</span>

Population of a town is 30,000 represents increase of 40% from five years ago. find the population
erma4kov [3.2K]
Well 50% of 30,000 is 15,000
So 10% is 3,000
15,000 - 3,000 = 12,000

So 40% increase is 42,000
