The difference is 21. Whenever you have the word difference, it means subtraction. You subtract -6 from 15. The equation would look like this, 15 - - 6. Then you two negatives into a positive to get 15+6. This would equal 21.

Use completing the aquare to solve for x in the equation (x+7)(x-9)=25​
Tema [17]

Answer:

x = 1 + sqrt(89) or x = 1 - sqrt(89)

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

(x - 9) (x + 7) = 25

Expand out terms of the left hand side:

x^2 - 2 x - 63 = 25

Add 63 to both sides:

x^2 - 2 x = 88

Add 1 to both sides:

x^2 - 2 x + 1 = 89

Write the left hand side as a square:

(x - 1)^2 = 89

Take the square root of both sides:

x - 1 = sqrt(89) or x - 1 = -sqrt(89)

Add 1 to both sides:

x = 1 + sqrt(89) or x - 1 = -sqrt(89)

Add 1 to both sides:

Answer: x = 1 + sqrt(89) or x = 1 - sqrt(89)

M is between points C and Q. CM=17 and CQ=21. What is MQ?
katrin2010 [14]
Sometimes it helps to draw it out...

     (17)
C_______M_________Q
|___________________|
             21

therefore, CM + MQ = CQ
17 + MQ = 21
MQ = 21 - 17
MQ = 4 <===
