Answer:

  x = -2 or -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation can be factored:

  (x +2)(x +3) = 0

The solutions are the values of x that make the factors be zero.

  x + 2 = 0   ⇒   x = -2

  x + 3 = 0   ⇒   x = -3

The solutions are x=-2 or -3.

_____

The product (x +a)(x +b) is ...

  (x +a)(x +b) = x^2 +(a+b)x + ab

Comparing this to the above equation, we see that the product of 'a' and 'b' must be 6, and their sum must be 5. When we look at the factors of 6, we find a couple of choices. The correct one is easy to see.

  6 = 1×6 = 2×3

The sums of factors are 1+6=7 and 2+3=5, so it is the latter pair that is of interest. It does not matter which we call 'a' and which we call 'b'. Once we find two numbers whose sum is 5 and product is 6, we can fill in the binomial factors:

  x^2 +5x +6 = (x +2)(x +3) = 0

Answer:

(x+3)(x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

take x^2 and take it apart. so it should be (x+  ) (x+  ) then take 6 and make it so it's multipuls equal 5. ur answer should be (x+3)(x+2) or vice versa.

Graph each circle given below right the center and the radius of each circle
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

Center: (-1,8)

Radius: 1

The graph is attached.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the circle has the form:

(x -h)^{2}+(y-k)^{2}=r^{2}

Where (h,k) is the  point of the center of the circle and r is the radius of the circle.

The equation given in the problem is

(x +1)^{2}+(y-8)^{2}=1

 Therefore:

h=-1

k=8

 Then, the center is (-1,8) and radius is 1.

You can graph the circle with its center at the (-1,8) and a radius of 1 as you can see in the figure attached.

Solve by Substitution<br> Show Steps<br> −2x + 3y + 5z = −21<br> −4z = 20<br> 6x − 3y = 0
Anarel [89]

−2x + 3y + 5z = −21

−4z = 20

6x − 3y = 0

do -4z=20 first

divide both sides by -4 to get z by itself

-4z/-4=20/-4

z=-5

Use z=-5 into −2x + 3y + 5z = −21

-2x+3y+5(-5)=-21

-2x+3y-25=-21

move -25 to the other side

sign changes from -25 to +25

-2x+3y-25+25=-21+25

-2x+3y=4

6x-3y=0

find x by eliminating y

Add the equations together

-2x+6x+3y+(-3y)=4+0

-2x+6x+3y-3y=4

4x=4

Divide by 4 for both sides

4x/4=4/4

x=1

Use x=1 into 6x − 3y = 0

6(1)-3y=0

6-3y=0

Move 6 to the other side

6-6-3y=0-6

-3y=-6

Divide both sides by -3

-3y/-3=-6/-3

y=2

Answer:

(1, 2, -5)
