8x-5(x-1)=4(x+2)

Distribute -5 and 4

8x-5x+5=4x+8

Now combine like terms

8x-5x= 3x

3x+5=4x+8

Subtract 3x from both sides

5=x+8

Subtract 8

-3=x

You can do symmetric property a=b then b=a

So the answer is

X=-3

Two possible solutions of are -7 and 1. Which statement is true?
quester [9]

We can plug those values into the equation, and if the answer is incorrect, we'll know if either one is extraneous.

√11 - 2(-7) = √(-7)^2 + 4(-7) + 4

√25 = √25

5 = 5

The first solution, -7, makes the equation true, and so it is not extraneous.

√11 - 2(1) = √(1)^2 + 4(1) + 4

√9 = √9

3 = 3

The second solution, 1, makes the equation true, and so it is also not extraneous.

<h3>The correct option is D, neither solution is extraneous. </h3>

Type the correct answer in each box. Consider the sum of cubes identity: a3 + b3 = (a + b)(a2 − ab + b2). For the polynomial 8x3
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

a = 2x, b = 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

8x^3+27 = (2x)^3 + 3^3

a = 2x and b = 3.

We can cube root 8x^3 getting 2x and cube root 27 getting 3.
