Answer this question (x −2)(x + 5) = 18

Mathematics
1 answer:
DENIUS [597]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

x=-7     x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

(x −2)(x + 5) = 18

Foil

x^2 +5x-2x-10 = 18

Combine like terms

x^2 +3x -10 =18

Subtract 18 from each side

x^2 +3x -28 = 0

Factor

What two numbers multiply to -28 and add to 3:   7 and -4

(x+7) (x-4) =0

Using the zero product property

x+7=0    x-4 =0

x=-7     x=4

Part of the graph of the function f(x) = (x - 1)(x + 7) is
algol [13]

Answer:

True: B, C and D

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of the function is shown in the attached diagram.

The vertex of the parabola (parabola is the graph of the function f(x)) is at (-3,-16), because

x_v=\dfrac{1+(-7)}{2}=-3\\ \\y_v=f(-3)=(-3-1)(-3+7)=-4\cdot 4=-16

So, option A is false and option B is true.

As you can see from the graph, the function is increasing for all x>-3, thus option C is true.

The graph is positive for x<-7 and x>1 and negative for -7<x<1, so option D is true and option E is false.
