Answer:

<h2>x = 1/8 , - 1</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

8x² + 7x - 1 = 0

Rewrite 7x as a difference

That's

8x² + 8x - x - 1 = 0

Factorize

8x( x + 1) - ( x + 1) = 0

(8x - 1)( x + 1) = 0

8x - 1 = 0 x + 1 =0

8x = 1 x = - 1

x = 1/8

The solutions are

<h3>x = 1/8 , - 1</h3>

Hope this helps you

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations are

● 4x + 2y = 10 (1)

● 4x - 2y = -10 (2)

● 4x + 2y = 10

Add - 4x to both sides

● 4x + 2y -4x = 10 -4x

● 2y = 10 -4x

Divide both sides by 2

● 2y/2 = (10 - 4x)/2

● y = 5 - 2x

● y = -2x + 5 (1)

● 4x - 2y = -10

Add -4x to both sides

● 4x -2y -4x = -10 - 4x

● -2y = -10 - 4x

Divide both sides by -2

● -2y/-2 = (-10 -4x)/-2

● y = 10 + 2x

● y = 2x + 5 (2)

So the equation are

● y = 2x + 5

● y = -2x + 5

Graph them

The lines intersect at (0,5) but aren't perpendicular

So the answer is d
