Start with <span>x^2 +14x = -24,

Find HALF the value of 14:  7
Square this:  49
Add 49, and then subtract 49:        x^2 + 14x + 49 - 49 = -24  We have a
                                                                                             perfect square
Rewrite the quadratic as the sq. of a binomial:                    trinomial on
                                                                                              the left
                                                         (x+7)^2 = 25

Take the sqrt of both sides:  x+7 = plus or minus 5

Then x = -2 and x = -12</span>

I need help that is simple enough explnation
velikii [3]

Answer:

7 in both boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

In the picture, it shows

4 (x - 3) = 20

and then it shows

4 (x) - 4 (3) = 20

so practically you separate the x and 3 and put them in parentheses and then put a 4 next to both of them.

It should be the same as your question.

7 x (8 - 3)

and then separate 8 and 3 and put a 7 next to both of them.

( 7 x 8) - ( 7 x 3)

Hope it helps and have a great day! =D

What is the distance between the house and the library?
MrMuchimi

Answer:

C (√34)

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagoras' theorem states that: a² + b² = c², where c is the hypotenuse and what we are trying to figure out.

So, 3² + 5² = c²

9 + 25 = 34 = c²

c = √34
