The answer is... x=4
4(4) + 7(5) = 51
Hope ive helped!
Yes you use the method of your choice to solve (x+7)*(x+7)
Then you distribute the negative -1(x^2+14x+49)
Then you add the four
-x^2-14x-45 should be your answer
If the coefficient of x^2 is negative, the graph will be n shaped and curve down instead of like a u shape if it was positive. If the vertex is below the x axis and curves down, it won’t pass the x axis, Tia is right.
