Answer:

x = - 1, x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 6x = 7

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 3) x + 9 = 7 + 9

(x - 3)² = 16 ( take the square root of both sides )

x - 3 = ± \sqrt{16} = ± 4

Add 3 to both sides

x = 3 ± 4, that is

x = 3 + 4 = 7 or x = 3 - 4 = - 1

Answer:

x=-1 , x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

x²-6x-7=0

(x)² - 2(x)(3) +(3)² -7 - (3)²=0------------(adding and removing 9 to make it a complete square)

(x-3)² -7-9=0

(x-3)²-16=0

(x-3)² - (4)²= 0

(x-3+4)(x-3-4)=0

(x+1)(x-7)=0

(x+1)=0⇒x=-1

(x-7)=0⇒x=7

peter has 6/7 of a stack of baseball cards left. If he is planning on splitting what he has left into stacks that are each 3/28
DIA [1.3K]
<h3>Answer:  8</h3>

=======================================================

Work Shown:

Let's say there are 28 cards in a full stack.

6/7 = 24/28 after multiplying top and bottom by 4

Since he has 24/28 of a stack left, this means he has 24 cards left.

He wants to arrange the remaining cards into piles so that each pile consists of 3/28 of a full stack. In other words, he wants each pile to have 3 cards.

So this must mean he will get 24/3 = 8 piles

(8 piles)*(3 cards per pile) = 8*3 = 24 cards total
