Simplifying
b2 + 12b + 35 = 0
Reorder the terms:
35 + 12b + b2 = 0
Solving
35 + 12b + b2 = 0
Solving for variable 'b'.
Factor a trinomial.
(7 + b)(5 + b) = 0
Subproblem 1
Set the factor '(7 + b)' equal to zero and attempt to solve:
Simplifying
7 + b = 0
Solving
7 + b = 0
Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-7' to each side of the equation.
7 + -7 + b = 0 + -7
Combine like terms: 7 + -7 = 0
0 + b = 0 + -7
b = 0 + -7
Combine like terms: 0 + -7 = -7
b = -7
Hi there!
For the Pythagorean Theorem, basically you just need to apply this formula: a^2 + b^2 = c^2
And then find the root of the hypotenuse.
For example,
15^2 + 8^2 = the hypotenuse^2
Which equals, 225 + 64 = 289
Square root of 289 = 17
