Answer:
-5
Step-by-step explanation:
-5 is the slope because it is the multiplier of x
This may not be very pretty.
(2x + 5) * (2x + 5) expanded is (use foil)
F = 4x^2
O = 2x * 5 = 10x
I = 2x + 5 = 10x
L = 25
Total = 4x^2 + 20x + 25
(x + 3)(x + 3) = x^2 + 6x + 9 by the same method
(2x + 7)(2x + 7) = 4x^2 + 28x + 49 Same method.
4x^2 + 20x + 25 + x^2 + 6x + 9 = 4x^2 + 28x + 49
5x^2 + 26x + 34 = 4x^2 + 28x + 49 Collect everything on the left.
x^2 - 2x - 15 = 0
(x - 5)(x + 3) = 0
x + 3 will have no meaning.
x - 5 = 0
x = 5
2x + 5 = 2*5 + 5 = 15
x + 3 = 5 + 3 = 8
2x+ 7 = 2*5 +7 = 17
Check
15^2 + 8^2 = 17^2
225 + 64 = ? 289
289 = 289
a = 15 <<<<< answer
b = 8 <<<<< answer
c = 17 <<<<< answer

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
D: 6 5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for a:
a + 7/6 = 8
Put each term in a + 7/6 over the common denominator 6: a + 7/6 = (6 a)/6 + 7/6:
(6 a)/6 + 7/6 = 8
(6 a)/6 + 7/6 = (6 a + 7)/6:
(6 a + 7)/6 = 8
Multiply both sides of (6 a + 7)/6 = 8 by 6:
(6 (6 a + 7))/6 = 6×8
(6 (6 a + 7))/6 = 6/6×(6 a + 7) = 6 a + 7:
6 a + 7 = 6×8
6×8 = 48:
6 a + 7 = 48
Subtract 7 from both sides:
6 a + (7 - 7) = 48 - 7
7 - 7 = 0:
6 a = 48 - 7
48 - 7 = 41:
6 a = 41
Divide both sides of 6 a = 41 by 6:
(6 a)/6 = 41/6
6/6 = 1:
Answer: a = 41/6 or a= 6 5/6
