Which are the solutions of x2 = –7x – 8?

vovangra [49]

Answer:

The solutions are:

$x_1=\frac{-7+\sqrt{17}}{2}$ $x_2=\frac{-7-\sqrt{17}}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following quadratic equation

$x^2 = -7x - 8$

We can rewrite the equation as follows

$x^2+7x + 8=0$

Now we use the quadratic formula to solve the equation

For an equation of the form $ax ^ 2 + bx + c = 0$ the quadratic formula is:

$x=\frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

In this case:

$a=1,\ b=7,\ c=8$

Then:

$x=\frac{-7\±\sqrt{7^2-4(1)(8)}}{2(1)}$

$x=\frac{-7\±\sqrt{49-32}}{2}$

$x=\frac{-7\±\sqrt{17}}{2}$

$x_1=\frac{-7+\sqrt{17}}{2}$

$x_2=\frac{-7-\sqrt{17}}{2}$
