Add 7x+8 to both sides
x^2+7x+8=0
use quadracit formula
x=\frac{-b+/- \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}
a=1
b=7
c=8


x=\frac{-7+/- \sqrt{7^2-4(1)(8)} }{2(1)}
x=\frac{-7+/- \sqrt{49-32} }{2}
x=\frac{-7+/- \sqrt{17} }{2}

Stacy bought gas for her car . Gas cost$143.54 per liter. Stacy bought 12.4 liters. What was the total cost for Stacy gas expres
UNO [17]

Answer:

$1779.896

Step-by-step explanation:

From the above question

1 liter = $143.54

12.4 liters = $x

Cross Multiple

1 liter × $x = 12.4 liters × $143.54

$x = 12.4 liters × $143.54/1 liter

$x = $1779.896

Therefore, the total cost for Stacy gas in dollars and cents is $1779.896

Simplify the cube root in simplest radical form.<br> 9x374<br> Please help
algol [13]

Answer:

D. xy\sqrt[3]{9y}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sqrt[3]{9x^3y^4}

\sqrt[3]{9}\sqrt[3]{x^3}\sqrt[3]{y^4}

The \sqrt[3]{x^3} cancels out to become x:

\sqrt[3]{9}x\sqrt[3]{y^4}

Split the y^4=y*y^3

\sqrt[3]{9}x\sqrt[3]{y^3}\sqrt[3]{y^1}

\sqrt[3]{y^3} =y

xy\sqrt[3]{9} \sqrt[3]{y}

Put the cube root of y and cube root of 9 together:

xy\sqrt[3]{9y}

Solve:<br> 2/3x+15=17<br><br> 3x+8-x=7<br><br> 4(2x-6)=2
Volgvan

Answer:

x = 3

x = (-1)/2

x = 13/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

(2 x)/3 + 15 = 17

Put each term in (2 x)/3 + 15 over the common denominator 3: (2 x)/3 + 15 = (2 x)/3 + 45/3:

(2 x)/3 + 45/3 = 17

(2 x)/3 + 45/3 = (2 x + 45)/3:

1/3 (2 x + 45) = 17

Multiply both sides of (2 x + 45)/3 = 17 by 3:

(3 (2 x + 45))/3 = 3×17

(3 (2 x + 45))/3 = 3/3×(2 x + 45) = 2 x + 45:

2 x + 45 = 3×17

3×17 = 51:

2 x + 45 = 51

Subtract 45 from both sides:

2 x + (45 - 45) = 51 - 45

45 - 45 = 0:

2 x = 51 - 45

51 - 45 = 6:

2 x = 6

Divide both sides of 2 x = 6 by 2:

(2 x)/2 = 6/2

2/2 = 1:

x = 6/2

The gcd of 6 and 2 is 2, so 6/2 = (2×3)/(2×1) = 2/2×3 = 3:

Answer:  x = 3

______________________________________________________

Solve for x:

3 x - x + 8 = 7

Grouping like terms, 3 x - x + 8 = (3 x - x) + 8:

(3 x - x) + 8 = 7

3 x - x = 2 x:

2 x + 8 = 7

Subtract 8 from both sides:

2 x + (8 - 8) = 7 - 8

8 - 8 = 0:

2 x = 7 - 8

7 - 8 = -1:

2 x = -1

Divide both sides of 2 x = -1 by 2:

(2 x)/2 = (-1)/2

2/2 = 1:

Answer: x = (-1)/2

_______________________________________

Solve for x:

4 (2 x - 6) = 2

Divide both sides of 4 (2 x - 6) = 2 by 4:

(4 (2 x - 6))/4 = 2/4

4/4 = 1:

2 x - 6 = 2/4

The gcd of 2 and 4 is 2, so 2/4 = (2×1)/(2×2) = 2/2×1/2 = 1/2:

2 x - 6 = 1/2

Add 6 to both sides:

2 x + (6 - 6) = 1/2 + 6

6 - 6 = 0:

2 x = 1/2 + 6

Put 1/2 + 6 over the common denominator 2. 1/2 + 6 = 1/2 + (2×6)/2:

2 x = 1/2 + (2×6)/2

2×6 = 12:

2 x = 1/2 + 12/2

1/2 + 12/2 = (1 + 12)/2:

2 x = (1 + 12)/2

1 + 12 = 13:

2 x = 13/2

Divide both sides by 2:

x = (13/2)/2

2×2 = 4:

Answer: x = 13/4
