What is the solution set of the equation x^2 - 7x - 18 = 0

2 answers:

5 0

Factoring this trinomial as the product of two binomials,

we have (x - 9)(x + 2) and set that equal to 0.

So we have (x - 9)(x + 2) = 0.

So either x - 9 = 0 or x + 2 = 0.

Solving for <em>x</em> in each equation, we find that our solution is {9, -2}.

(x-9)(x+2)=0
x=9 or x=-2

y = 4

first note that the right side simplifies to 12, equation can be written

$\frac{2y+1.6}{0.8}$ = 12 ( multiply both sides by 0.8 )

2y + 1.6 = 9.6 ( subtract 1.6 from both sides )

2y = 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 4
