Answer:
5. x = -1 or x = -3
6. b = -2 or b = 6
7. n = 5 or n = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
5. x² + 4x + 3 = 0
Factorize
x² + 3x + x + 3 = 0
x(x + 3) +1(x + 3) = 0
(x + 1)(x + 3) = 0
Set each of the factors equal to zero and solve for x
x + 1 = 0 or x + 3 = 0
x = -1 or x = -3
6. b² - 4b - 14 = -2
Put all terms on one side of the equation leaving zero on one side
b² - 4b - 14 + 2 = 0
b² - 4b - 12 = 0
Factorize
b² - 6b + 2b - 12 = 0
b(b - 6) +2(b - 6) = 0
(b + 2)(b - 6) = 0
Set each of the factors equal to zero and solve for b
b + 2 = 0 or b - 6 = 0
b = -2 or b = 6
7. n² = 9n - 20
Put all terms on one side of the equation leaving zero on one side
n² - 9n + 20 = 0
n² - 5n - 4n + 20 = 0
n(n - 5) -4(n - 5) = 0
(n - 5)(n - 4) = 0
Set each of the factors equal to zero and solve for b
n - 5 = 0 or n - 4 = 0
n = 5 or n = 4
The correct answer would be 20
2x+13
X= a number
2(a number) + 13
Thank you!
Step-by-step explanation:
In response to this question,
When solving a linear equality, one difference that we must keep in mind other than replacement of = sign with some equality sign is that when we do multiplication or division with a negative number, we are then required as a must to change the direction of the inequality sign.
