Answer:
OA) 14
Step-by-step explanation:
2((7+1)-1)
2(8-1)
You could expand the brackets then simplify or just simplify now. It will be better to simplify now though but I will do both methods.
Simplifying first:
2(7) = 2 × 7 = 14
Our answer is 14 So answer is OA) 14
Expanding first then simplifying:
2(8-1) = 16-2 = 14
Our answer is 14 So answer is OA) 14
The two numbers are (5+ √(129))/2 and (5-√(129))/2.
(5+ √(129))/2+ (5-√(129))/2= 5
(5+ √(129))/2* (5-√(129))/2= -26
Hope this helps~
