Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 2x + 1 = 17

x^2 + 2x = 17 - 1

x^2 + 2x = 16

x^2 + 2x + 1 = 16 + 1

(x + 1)(x + 1) = 17

(x + 1)^2 = 17

x + 1 = sqrt 17

x = -1 (+ - ) sqrt 17

x = -1 + sqrt 17 or x = -1 - sqrt 17 <===

Find the value of the variable such that: the value of 5−a is 20 greater than the value of 6a−1
vovangra [49]

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

(5 - a) = 20 + (6a -1) . . . . . 5-a is 20 greater than 6a-1

5 = 7a +19 . . . . . . . . . . . . . add a, collect terms

-14 = 7a . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 19

-2 = a . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 7

The value of the variable is -2.

_____

<u>Check</u>

5 - (-2) = 7

6(-2) -1 = -13

7 is 20 greater than -13, so the answer checks OK.
