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 :)

How to wirte a linear equation from a graph
astra-53 [7]
Hey there!
I'll assume we're using the slope-intercept form equation:
y = mx + b
m = slope
b = y-intercept
First, we keep the y, because it's value depends on the x value given.
Next, we find the slope. Slope is defined as rise/run, so we take two points on the graph, find how much taller one is from another, and how far right/left they are, put those values over each other, and we have out slope (m).
Finally, we need to determine the y-intercept, and that's as simple as seeing where the line crosses the y axis and writing down that value.
Hope this helps!

Please help if you think you hot beautiful kind funny cool please help me please

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line that passes through the two points would be correct if each point, when substituted into the equation, satisfy the equation.

This is what I mean:

Given the equation of the line, y = 2x - 5, and the two points (-2, -9) and (3, 1):

For the first point, substitute x = -2, and y = -9 into y = 2x - 5.

Thus:

-9 = 2(-2) - 5

-9 = -4 - 5

-9 = -9 (this is true). It means the line runs through the point (-2, -9)

For the second point, substitute x = 3, and y = 1 into y = 2x - 5

This:

1 = 2(3) - 5

1 = 6 - 5

1 = 1 (this is true). This also means the point, (3, 1) is also a point that the equation runs across.
